[QUOTE=dj4monie;2824347]International GT Open (formerly Spanish GT)[QUOTE]
The International GT Open is a totally different championship (run by the same people). The Spanish GT Championship still exists, and doesn't share a single weekend. |

Pagenaud and de Ferran comes to mind. Of course, the Acuras were closer to single seaters than GT cars, but it is possible that the new RSR boys can be a pleasant surprise like those two. |

I think most of the racing world view him as "damaged goods" from his head injury. That happens to many drivers, Davey Jones is another example. They didn't loose their talent they lost their opportunities by a sport that's not very loyal to its athletes. |

What we don't know, is how often he has tested for a team, and had the other driver chosen over him. I have to say, that misspelling of lose always cracks me up. |

Paul Miller switch to GT Porsche,hope those Yokohama tires works on the car,likely it's going to be a full season entry if everything goes well.Porsche must have an eye on them after they finished 2nd in 24h Daytona with an elder car.

Chris Dyson interviewed on DSC, suggests that a second car is a possibility- hopefully in time for Sebring, but they're looking at it 'one race at a time for now'
An announcement re: Jay Cochran is expected during the Sebring test. |

So, Robertson Racing enters two Michelin-equipped Doran Fords for full ALMS campaign. I was expecting just one full-season car, with second car doing selected rounds. But hey, looks great
Still a bit disappointing Ford-wise, since ACS and Matech couldn't keep their promises. |

And I think that the fact that Michelin is their tire supplier is probably down to the Ford Racing money(?).

Shouldn't we be starting to see shots of teams arriving/setting up for the start of the Sebring test soon?

From what I can see that's a good job with the livery, it's playing nice with the Aston's lines!

According to Dagys Autocon will miss Sebring as the car is in England being updated and on DSC Dyson say they are still looking to run two cars, possibly in time for Sebring.

GT Open is international and aims at attracting pan-european teams. Nice paint job on the Aston. It reminds me of the RS Spyder colors. Shame we won't see that proto racing anymore. |
