Didn't cath the rest of the race.. thought it'd be more fun to ...I dunno.... go out n get hammered instead.
Looks like it was a really good one though. If Le Mans is this close it could be a vintage year Smile

Is this for next years GT1 rules? Or is it current GT2 rules built?

by Highcroft Sun 12 Apr 2009 - 22:49

It's built to the current GT2 regs. The factory team will run it in the ALMS after Le Mans.

Jaguar will also be joining the GT2 class in the American Le Mans Seres mid-summer.

I wish every class could be like GT2. Right now we have Porsche, Ferrari, BMW, Panoz, Ford GT, Corvette, Aston Martin, Viper, and now Jaguar.

All we need now is a non factory team to create a TVR Sagaris GT2, since non factory teams have raced TVR Sagaris GT3's in the BritCar and BritCar 24 hour. Smile

Interesting Rear Wing struts, perhaps taking some design features from the new LMP1 cars.

by **ATR DAN** Sat 18 Apr 2009 - 9:59

OOOOH!

Sweet looking thing! Razz

by nickyf1 Sat 18 Apr 2009 - 10:33

Cant wait to see this Nissan GTR 2010 spec GT1 car at Silverstone, im sure Jenson cant wait either Razz

by **Matt** Sat 18 Apr 2009 - 12:50

Ive already seen alot of pics of it. Plus the Matech GT1 Ford which looks good.
I think the sooner GT2-3 become the main catagories the better. The grids for GT3 have always been waaaay bigger than GT1 and with Audi and Alpina joining in thats only getting bigger.
Of course there are still the Astons, Corvettes, Vipers, Jags, Mustangs, Ford GTs Morgans and Ferraris to contend with. So fun all round!

by nickyf1 Sat 18 Apr 2009 - 17:37

yay

Mabey a seperate thread seeing as we are talking of sportscar racing of the FIA sort, rather than the ACO sort?
