They might do Dubai, but not as their debut. Rumor has it they will do the last three VLN (Nordschleife-endurance) races.

However, the car won't have a full GT3-homologation until the FIA's pre-season tests in 2011, which are usually in February or March. Without a valid FIA homologation they can't compete in the GT3-class of VLN, but then there are many other classes in VLN, and I am sure the SLS would fit in at least one of them, from the top of my head, I'd say that they could either run it in SP8 (24 hour specials up to 6.2l displacement) or E1XP (oh, you are a factory team, if you give us some money you can run your car in this class and we don't care if it fits the rules).

So, in short, I fully expect to see this car this fall at the 'Ring, but not in the bespoke GT3-class.
