2 championship winning lineups which is no surprise from Kpax. Now to see if they have any competition

Yeah I'm hoping some other manufacturers provide this level of involvement. It's nice to see the AMG factory support for Daytona, would be great to see Engel, Stolz, Buhk, etc. on hand for SRO races as well. Either way we will need some serious manufacturer involvement to compete against KPax with the drivers they are bringing. Those line ups would be a major threat in GTWC Europe, let alone in America.

He should still be pretty quick. He has a few podiums, including a race win in ADAC GT Masters with an Audi back in 2015. I think the Audi and Lambo are more similar than most cars are so I'm sure he will hit the ground running. He's also surrounded with some serious talent that I'm sure will help as well.

This is great to see. Although I'd really love to see a pro/pro lineup materialize from Mercedes for this series. I'm pretty concerned this is going to be a KPax vs KPax series up front.

KPAX will have a little pro-pro competition, don't worry

I have V.I.R on June 12 for GT WC America to attend in person on my radar this year. GT3 looks more promising than last year that's for sure. One great thing about having several Lamborghinis and Mercedes on the grid is the engine noises they produce. Acura and BMW's are cool but their engine sounds are rather ordinary.

Are GT3 races still 90 minutes?

According to Lee Niffenegger Acuras Program Manager on S365 there will be 2x Acura GT3's for full season, with a 3rd joining later on.

The article also all but confirms Compass will be running a Acura in 2021 not the Mclaren. Shame for grid diversity, hopefully the Mclaren finds another home in the US for 2021.

Without knowing teams in some cases as far as manufacturers go looks like we got so far 1. Lamborghini 2. Mercedes 3. Aston Martin 4. Ferrari 5. BMW 6. Acura

Fingers crossed for a Porsche, Audi, McLaren, and/or Lexus to get in

Porsche should be added to the manufacturer list in the near future

That is awesome. Well if I had the bucks, I'd run an Audi. An SRO series with no Audi is a crime.

LOL agreed! As a huge Audi/VW fan I'd love to run an Audi TC, GT4, and GT3 program in SRO competition

Does the DXDT Racing team have any connection to the old Stevenson Motorsports team? The liveries with the bird on the side looks very familiar to their look.

Foley/Dinan in the previously announced Turner BMW M6 GT3 program. Wouldn't be surprised to see this car challenge for overall wins

14 GT3’s in GTWC America

GT America has 8 GT3’s & 13 GT4’s

32 GT4’s in GT4 America

24 TC’s in TC America



Good grids, curiously Gt America was billed as launching to accommodate GT2, and none have shown up
