I was wrong, im very sorry. The Pre Qualifying results only showed 11 cars posting times but the race saw 13 take the start.

Anyway, i watched the first 10 minutes but the sound problems on the stream from the earlier sessions are still there.

I always recall when the GP's were held at this time of year, they could be at the mercy of the weather too! '79 and '81 were a bit murky!

That qualy session on Saturday though. Jeee whizz that was biblical! Surprised they started it let alone red flagged it.

Not long now until the Bathurst 12 hours, no PRO class this year and very few overseas teams, leaving a slightly understated grid. Still, Gounon, SVG, Mostert... Theres still some hope for a good race..

GT3 PRO-AM - 10 Cars

Audi Sport Customer Racing Australia - Audi R8 LMS GT3 - Chaz Mostert / Liam Talbot / Fraser Ross

Add in 2 more local Mercs.The Griffith car and one other.
I intend to go up for the weekend but not feeling much enthusiasm.Saying it is a pale shadow of the last 6-7 events is being too kind.

20 cars, not horrible.

Hoping we get a few good battles with SVG, vs Gounon, vs Mostert, vs hopefully a few Audi guns in those Valvoline cars.

To be honest, 12 hours of 20 cars circulating a track like Bathurst is going to be worth watching as always.

Better than I was expecting 2 weeks ago.
Have to look at this year as being a band aid solution to keep the race happening and that we will go back to normal next February.
Any clues about drivers for Craft Bamboo?

The number 47 Audi crashed at Reid Park during practice today.

Possibly now down to 19 starters for Sunday's race.

Pretty good idea if you are trying to grow the pool of GT2 cars. But there are less brands in GT2 to chose from vs GT3, so there is a loss of (potential) variety.

What is the current GT2 make list?

Audi
Porsche
KTM
Maserati (next year)

Ratel was openly speaking about encouraging the older drivers in GT4 to move on to GT2 and leave GT4 for the younger driver pairings
(silver/silver) during the SRO press conference today.

Looks like GT World Challenge itself is staying GT3 only, so going to have to be VERY selective on the additional Spa entries if your adding in say 10 GT2s (66 GT3 at Spa this weekend)

Pictures from my first visit to Indianapolis Motor Speedway: https://bit.ly/3TucqQk

I’m very pleased to have seen IMS, which is a very impressive place. As usual at US motorsports events, the staff and fans were friendly and helpful. It was a great day out.

The road course though, is pretty average as a spectator experience and poor for photos. High fences, no elevation changes, no access to any of the high stands except one tiny area low down opposite the start, no access to the area over the bridge by the lake.

I asked why so much was closed and was told “we only open the stands for the big races, not a low-key event like this”. It seems SRO has a way to go to get this higher up the status pole.

Still, it was a lovely day and I did my best to be creative with the angles and the subsequent cropping! I hope you enjoy .

Just noticed that the Bathurst 12 Hour event is this weekend, feel like its kinda snuck up on us after all the excitement of Daytona. Entry List looks decent. There are images of a Nissan Skyline GT3 being unloaded at the circuit but nothing on the Entry list though?

I was looking for a thread this morning while perusing the entry. Looks pretty strong and similar names/makes as previous years.

Whadda think? Let's start a thread? It's a cool event that I've been looking forward to!

Feels like a Nurburgring race in Australia honestly. The entry list is all german GT3 cars. And it would have been worse if WRT did not show up with BMW's instead of Audis.

The grid is smaller which for the Bathurst race is a good thing cause there is less a risk of lots of safety cars which has plagued the race over the years. Fingers crossed for good weather there.
