The rules changed and they got less downforce and a bigger rear wing right?? The cars should have better top speed and higher lap times!! |

One spec aero will be homologated per season. Therefore it'll be high drag than the conventional Fuji spec aero. |

No official BOP for the test.
But GT300 teams should run in "envisaged" BOP. However, we don't know by what kind of BOP they run. |

@Japanese Samurai By the way , how about the JAF-GT 300 including Mother chassis BOP one. I think that this season will use BOP in both GT3 and JAF-GT300 including Mother chassis. Hoped you not hesitate to reply. |

GTA will determine JAF-GT300 BOP as usual.
But the detail is not clear yet. |

"Cars participating in SGT GT300 class are JAF GT 300 and FIA GT3. From this year GTA will adopt the BoP of BLANCPAIN GT series to FIA GT3 cars in SGT GT300. On the other hand GTA develops the BoP for JAF GT300 cars as ever." "Eligible cars in the GT300 class are cars developed in accordance with JAF-GT300 regulation and cars built to FIA GT3 specifications. GTA has adopted the BoP of the Blancpain GT Series in the 2014 season taken in consideration that FIA GT3 cars will be able to participate in the GT300 class as they are without any modifications. Along with the BoP of the Blancpain GT Series, GTA has independently adjusted the BoP for JAF-GT300 cars." Extract from this article: http://www.dailysportscar.com/2014/1...per-gt300.html |

According to BOB-Suzuki blog , he is not satisfied the BOP for M6 GT3.
Title: 要BOP改善ッ! あーあーあーあー M235Racingのオッチャン 滅茶苦茶怒ってます。 M6GT3も1台巻き添え食いました。 ヨギーも参加してた一昨日のVLN ニュルブルクリンクの耐久シリーズ開幕戦 AMG GT3の無茶な追い抜きで 3台のクラッシュ・・・ まぁ、それはいいとして 大事なのはこのレースの結果 SCHNITZERやSCHUBELTが ヨギーやDTM現役ドライバーまで使って 最高位が15位 ヨギーは23位 TOPと同一周回ですから トラブルは考えにくいです。 つまり現状のGT3のBOP(性能調整)で 我らがBMW Motorsport F13/M6GT3の ソレは他車に対し非常に厳しい現状です。 先日のフジテストでも 得意なコースにも関わらず うちがミッショントラブル抱えながらも20番手 ARTA#55さんでも18番手です。 テストですので一概には言えませんが シーズン前までには もう少しご猶予下さい、ラテルさんw @Japanese Samurai (Hoped you not hesitate to reply) Can you help me to translate this article as shown as above. http://lineblog.me/studiebob/archives/9269264.html |

About first race of VLN.
Important thing is the that race result. Highest position of BMW was 15th. And Jorg Muller was 23rd. (They are BMW factory driver) They are same lap from the winner, so the trouble is not the cause of less speed. In a word, BOP of M6GT3 is very severe than other GT3 cars. We were 20th (with gearbox trouble), and ARTA were 18th in the Fuji test. This is test, so I can't say determinately the result. However, Mr. Ratel, please make consideration for our BOP.

Ha, VLN pre-N24 is utterly pointless with regards to BoP. All manufacturers are just playing games to try to get breaks for the big one.
Hopefully, with all the data they have from last year, the organisers won't fall for BMW and Mercedes' games again. |

Times and trap speeds from Fuji test are a bit off reality, track was so cold that cars were weaving all the way down the straight in a forlorn attempt to keep some tyre temp. Some cars used wets as it was too cold to get slicks to work.

The trap speeds are they really representative of the actual top speeds? Not sure where Super GT does the scoring line at.

According to EICars twitter,
their Bentley Continental GT3 is a new car, not used car. EICars is official dealership of Bentley. So permission of Bentley headquarter was required in order to participate in SGT. They bought two Continental GT3 for race and spare. https://twitter.com/ihcuobust/status/846492135134281728 |

Lexus Team WedsSport Bandoh driver Yuji Kunimoto will represent Toyota in the 85th 24 Hours of Le Mans, driving with Stephane Sarrazin and Nicolas Lapierre in the #9 Toyota TS050. He'll also drive the 6 Hours of Spa, which means missing the Fuji 500km. Pending an official announcement, Kenta Yamashita will drive the #19 WedsSport Advan LC500 in his place at Fuji. |

But that begs the question, who will replace Yamashita in the VivaC MC 86 for the Fuji 500 km?

Takeshi Tsuchiya is also still possible to race at Rd.2 Fuji. After all, he's only retired as a full-time driver, not entirely. Or maybe the team will employ 3-driver lineup for Fuji 500km. http://www.vivac25.com/contents/drivers/ |

The BMW's were barely pushing it at VLN1.
They were very clearly BOP dodging |
