That's awesome. I had one w/ Estre in a McLaren at Road America...scariest but coolest thing I've done.

If I understand what the schedule now on the PWC website appears to show, it looks like the 5 headline weekends will have SprintX round(s) featuring GT/GTA/GTCup cars, along with separate Sprint round(s) for GTS. http://world-challenge.com/schedule/schedule-2017/ Last edited by HighParker; 15 Nov 2016 at 16:52. |

Apparently Johnny O'Connell and Michael Cooper will have very different Cadillacs for next season:

"2017 PWC race format confirmed"
http://sportscar365.com/gt/world-cha...mat-confirmed/ Well, I guess it's official now. Not super thrilled, but I'll give it a chance and see how it works out. Interesting to note that the Sprint-X rounds will still feature GTS class cars and that the GTcup class will now have Ferrari and Lambo challenge cars in addition to the Porsche cup machines. |

Definitely glad to see the Pro GT teams won't have a minimum pit time. |

This does seem to be overly complicated, but I guess I'll wait to see what the on track product looks like. I guess the good thing is that if it doesn't work the series will change it for next year.

A driver swap and a tire change in a race length that doesn't need either. Wonderful.

It seems R. Ferri has a 488 GT3-and it has PWC number plates.

What works in Europe may not work here. The teams I have contacts with in the series all think it's silly, and the only reason they're entering Sprint-X rounds is so they can race more than 5 times a year.

Mantella Autosport is bringing back their KTM XBows, I assume with Mantella & Barkey. They have a third car available for a pay driver. Mark Klenin's KPR team has announced that he is switching from the Maserati to the McLaren GT4. I think that's all that's been announced so far. nasportscar has a tracker which they update occasionally: http://nasportscar.com/2017-entry-li...challenge-gts/ |
