GT Open 2016
I couldn't find a topic yet...
Calendar 2016 24 april – Estoril 22 may – Spa 4 june – Le Castellet 24 july – Silverstone 11 september – Spielberg 2 october – Monza 30 october – Montmelò Last season it was a bit low on entries and this winter i didn't read/hear a lot of news about the series as well, only that Teo Martin will run a BMW M6 & AF Corse will run a car for the Belgian racer Lemeret. Somebody has some more info/news? They have great weekends for the racing fans! GT Open, F3 Open, FR3.5 V8, Radical European Masters, Seat Leon Eurocup. |

I believe its GT3 know but Im guessing they'll accept anyone considering how entry numbers have been down over the last yea or two. Ah for a repeat of the the glory years of Manthey v AF Corse.

Last year they had some Radicals as well, one of them scored pole at Monza.
Maybe they should let LMP3 (just like in the French GT Tour) & GTE cars in, would be better. |

Nobody outside the ACO-series is racing GTEs anymore... that's the very reason why they got rid of them.
Being a Johnny-come-lately to the LMP3-party wouldn't do them much good either, I'd think. |

Awesome to see manthey involved.
I'm curious as to the teams running the Huracans and Mclarens through: Says three Mclarens, 2 of which are to be Garage 59 cars, so wonder the identity of the third... And no idea in the Huracans... |

I don't think Manthey returning is the big fillet that it was back in 2012, but anywhere where the SCG is competing is worth my time.

Could be wrong though and Manthey/Porsche are using it for Works car development. |

Scrap that unfortunately, the teaser of the SCG looking car, happened to be a rather similar front end looking Radical.... Think Radical have been taking some heavy inspiration there.
Shame, would be awesome to see the SCG003 around more |
