Definitely good to see another Viper GT3; we know Mercedes are doing fine with GT3 so good to see a bit of extra variety and Pappas has often brought that.

The SLS is on its way out anyway, so good to see more American makes in this series.

I feel the opposite. Its a smaller car but looks better (imo) because the racecar's width is more pronounced vs the roadcar. Glad it keeps that thunderous V8 too!

So maybe I'm just being blind here, but I can't seem to find two of the races on the series' goofy TV site... Am I just missing them or are they not actually there?
Looking for St. Pete GT/A/Cup Round 3, and GTS Round 4... I see the highlights videos, and I see the full streams for GT/A/Cup Round 4 and GTS Round 3. It's always been a pain for me to try to follow this series. I can never catch the live streams, so I always have to use the awful site, where it spoils the damn races right at the top of the page when you first visit, then they have their fancy flash-y looking page set up that always seems to run slowly and the videos are very poorly organized with a bunch of interviews and commercial segments and such all mixed in with the other clips. At least now they use YouTube for their uploads so I can go watch them on a decent streaming service instead of whatever it was they used to use. Last edited by Accident; 18 Apr 2015 at 09:59. |

The barber weekend was better than long beach. Not much, but, it was.
SCCA is screwing the pooch. IMSA stands to benefit next year. I know Haselgrove well. He's not an idiot by any means... They are just way in over their heads. Last edited by MoMedic9019; 27 Apr 2015 at 00:48. |

I feel IMSA is moving closer and closer to their own GT3 sprint series (they've probably signed up Elton Julian's Dragonspeed as their first entrant already! ).

I think the relationship w/ SRO will be huge for the growth of the series and help to "settle" things down and get them to where they need to be.

I see KPAX is the main sponsor on the PWC car. What exactly is KPAX? If you google it, it's either the movie, a TV station in Montana or some cloud based data something. Those seem to be some really expensive cars to be running with a sponsor that I can't figure out what it is.

And the K-Pax name is just that, a name, that came from here:
http://www.genebrewer.com/ Basically, the owner thought of a cool team name way-back-when, and it's stuck around through his progressions. |

From the future of Corvette thread.

I don't understand why GM won't allow a Corvette team to race alongside their Cadillac program. It's a real shame, because the Callaway C7 would have been an awesome addition to the PWC grid. |

Speaking of KPax/Flying Lizard, they're partnering with Canadian McLaren importer, Pfaff Automotive, for Mosport.
