I think the changes to limit top speed before were worried about the speed they were going to hit. But with Gibson requesting the power be turned down for Daytona because it's the engines first race, the speeds were lower than expected anyway.

db9spotter should be qualifying in the top 10 on the griddb9spotter should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Like last year, I try to list all the Aston Martin Vantage V12 GT3 by their chassis number and races made

Is it possible for those who have the chance to approach the cars, to collect for me the chassis number of the Vantage GT3 #98 Aston Martin Racing Team

Chassis number is visible on the bottom left of the windshield.
It is found in this format : AMRVANTAGEGT3-XXX

Thanks for your help

I have probably missed it, and right now the entry list isn't working (I guess being updated?), but I don't remember hearing about Magnus Racing?

Yes. There was some talk of them running elsewhere at least part-time, but I think it's been crickets lately.

Along the same lines, it sucks to see that Spencer Pumpelly is out last-minute at Change. Too many good drivers without rides these days...

MaskedRacer User has been fined for unsportsmanlike behaviour!
I feel GTLM teams will sandbag again. Not sure if they even try to lap in the 1 min 44s. So no panic if GTD guys are right on their back heel for the Roar which I think will be the case. Besides they are GT cars its not as big of a deal if they are separated as much.

I do think GTLM cars should have a bit more horsepower though. I mean these are high dollar factory operated machines here. The prototype class is far enough ahead I guess to not be a conflict anymore. LMPC is irrelevant at this point they should not even factor in.

Only BMW I see on Contis is the Turner #97. The RLL 19 & 24 are Michelin, as are all the GTLM cars as you would expect.

I don't think it's just you. The previous cars to used what I'd describe as a semi-metallic maroonish red, while this seems to be almost orange.

Cars are on track and conditions are cool (61F/16C) but sunny. Not sure anybody is going to be going for a time today, but tomorrow will bring rain so if we do see any fast times it will be today.
