Surely there will be 2 WRT in BES pro class
Both WRT and Phoenix will enter two cars. One official Audi Sport car + 1 private per team. I guess it means that Audi foots the bill and gives works drivers for 1 car per team and the teams line up the 2nd cars with their own money / sponsors / pay drivers. Plus there will likely be plenty of other Audis by other privateer teams.

I think it'll be the updated car, so yes. Farnbacher are one of the development teams so it makes sense to test it in the vln races.

P 4/5 C is also coming along and will be ready for the 6H Quail Race at the Ring.

It held up pretty well and will run a further developed KERS system. We're also working on the chassis and suspension for 2016.
Hi James,

Question, the P4/5C will race the 6H Quali race, therefore it will also race the N24? Is this the reason behind the chassis and suspension upgrades?

Thanks.

Yes she will race the N24 as well.

After the road miles I put on her she needed a service to make her race ready again.

VLN and Nurburgring 24 hours

Mercedes stepping up support for it its team for the 24hr

http://sportscar365.com/gt/n24/merce...urburgring-24/

Quote:
In total, seven new Mercedes-AMG GT3 will be competing in the endurance race in the Eifel, set to be run by Black Falcon, HTP Motorsport, Haribo Racing and Mann-Filter Team Zakspeed.

Black Falcon and HTP Motorsport will both enter two AMG-supported cars, while Haribo Racing will receive the same treatment for its single entry.

AMG-Team Black Falcon will be able to count on the services of Bernd Schneider, Dirk Müller, Maro Engel, Nico Bastian, Yelmer Buurman, Adam Christodoulou, Hubert Haupt and Manuel Metzger.

Meanwhile, Stefan Mücke, Marco Seefried, Christian Vietoris, Dominik Baumann, Maximilian Buhk, Christian Hohenadel, Thomas Jäger and Renger van der Zande will compete for AMG-Team HTP Motorsport.

Uwe Alzen, Lance David Arnold, Maximilian Götz, Jan Seyffarth will crew Haribo’s black Mercedes-AMG GT3.
Some very strong drivers there. Can't wait to see what Uwe Alzen can do the in the Haribo car. Have they got their car yet? Can't wait to see it, the SLS looked wickedly tough in the black Haribo colours.

Haribo had already reserved their AMG GT3 one year ago, the SLS was leased from AMG. Pretty sure they were one of the first to receive it.

Can't directly link the picture, but, yeh, I had a good time. Even found a Dutch flag to pose with because planting the Dutch flag on German soil is only fair. This picture: https://www.instagram.com/p/BDJNJuBM...n-by=gtxreport
