There are so many journos out-there but none reported on Norma successive delays. Sometimes looking for answers only leads to more questions. And sometimes you’re better off not knowing.

This is what I have, but I in no way believe it's exhaustive. Not many people seem to have shown intent or announced so far IMSA Prototype Challenge P3 - ANSA Motorsports - Adess 03 Nissan - Matt Dickin / Corey Lewis? - P1 Motorsports - Ligier JS P3 Nissan - TBA - Wilzig Racing - Ginetta G57 Nissan - Alan Wilzig / TBA - MG1 Motorsports - Ligier JS P3 Nissan - TBA - Davytec Motorsports - Ligier JS P3 Nissan - TBA - TBA - Norma M30 Nissan - TBA |

ESM have a Ligier too. And I think there's a few more P3s racing in FARA... I'd expect those to show up at least for Sebring as well.

Don't forget that Lites/Challenge will be a two-class championship now, so it's not necessarily bad to not have a massive number of P3 entries. I would not be concerned as long as it has at least 5 entries.
Now if only they'd do something about the outdated cars in the other class as well. Quote:

Wonder if someone in Europe will pick up the Ave-Riley now they've dropped Murph.

In the Creventic 12 hour races, the full season entry is out:
8x G57's, 1x Adess, 1x Norma, 1x Renault RS01, 4x CN's, 1x Tampoli SR2 Not bad plus likely one off entries |

https://www.lmpmotorsports.com https://www.facebook.com/LMPMotorspo...type=3&theater include the ESM/Ligier test car and we'll be getting close to 10 entries. Plus perhaps 10 division 2 cars? I would be surprised too see less than 20 cars for the first round of the revamped series. |

Btw, the new PC series (former IMSA Lites) plus GT3 Cup is testing at Sebring on Thu+Fri, March 9+10.
That will give a good indication who'll be running round 1 and the rest of the series. |

First of all, I don't buy that. I don't believe either is more marketable than the other - not in regards to IMSA Prototype Lites/Challenge, at least.
But even if you're right, it doesn't apply. I'm not talking about throwing out LMP3 in favor of CN, I'm talking about throwing out the Elan DP02 in favor of CN. |

Can we count G57's under this topic?
If so, Pegasus Racing have bought a G57, for V de V, and Crevantic Proto. Be nice to see Pegasus moving back up the ladder |

Technically, Ginetta's G57 is almost a P2, not a P3 (that's the G55).
But sure, I don't see why not. |

The G55 is the GT car. The LMP3 was just called the LMP3. The G57 is an adapted LMP3, not really a P2 car (hence why it's being called a P2, not an LMP2, since it isn't a P2 car by any regs).

Lites / LMP3
Quote:
I totally know the G57 isn't the LMP3, that's wasn't my question My question was more, do comments on the G57 fit into this P3/Lites thread as the G57 isn't exactly a P2 Seems like it's not worth having a separate thread on the G57, or either the vdev / 24h proto series |
