I agree, I don't see how making GT3 cars in Australia exclusive to AGT & GT Trophy Series only does anyone any good..

Why does the 12hr get an exemption from this rule then also?

CB Entry released.

Quite a few GT4's entered, couple of new M4's, Few Audi's, The Mobile Chicane, Objective, Hobson's, Miedecke's and a fleet of MARC's.

Obviously treated fairly seriously by some as a Test Day for the 12Hr

Nothing happening from what I hear. V8 Race Experience are filling the Monday and Tuesday spots under the permit.
Evidently the move from after the 12 hour to after Challenge was due to financial costs of using Supercar permit.

Strakka swaps from McLaren to AMG, and in this announcement they off-handedly also confirm that they will take their Mercs to Bathurst. https://www.facebook.com/strakkaraci...096719/?type=3 No word yet on drivers or on how many cars they'll be running.

DSC says-

"The Silverstone based team will run three new Mercedes-AMG GT3s in the intercontinental GT challenge alongside Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup."

So.... 3 at Bathurst in theory??
