The 911 must not be a "true race car" either, it has a back seat! How dare they.
For reference, MaskedRacer stated an opinion of cars they'd like to see, and I've responded with opinion myself of cars I'd like or not like to see there.

No, the lines of the Vantage don't insult or annoy me as much as the AMG. The DBR9's line I don't mind at all. The SLS is a Mercedes and can, as all mercedes, spontaneously combust worldwide instantly for all I care. There's little lines more classic than the 911 saying hound me around a corner, so your observation doesn't resonate with me.

Can only agree that the best race to go to is Spa , huge crowd and it's 24 hours ! But in terms of track viewing , the only place that competes with Brands , IMHO , is from on top of the pits at Misano , you can see roughly half the track from there .

Two Pro and two Pro-Am for Akka-ASP in BES, an additional car for BSS.

Shaping up nicely again.

I wish Serie A would hurry up and select their TV fixtures for the Monza weekend so I can sort my trip out!

One of the AF Corse 488 GT3's will again be driven by the trio of Pasin Lathouras, Alessandro Pier Guidi, and Michele Rugolo. Same as last year

Same sponsor livery too

I doubt Matt Simmons is paying, but the other two might be bringing money. To answer your question though; I don't really care, the car still sounds the same when it goes past me and that's far from an uncompetitive lineup!

I'm unsure on the quality of the lineup but will let their racing do the talking.

Parry is new to GT so this will be a learning year.

Moore had a very unimpressive spell at McLaren as an academy driver and they clearly haven't retained him. That said he did the ASLMS in a P2 and seemed to driver well.

Simmons I can't say I've noticed any good drive from, but that's not to discredit any ability he may have.


It'll be a real hit or miss, they have potential to run well but I think they will more likely struggle a little at first, hopefully find their feet through the season

No Phoenix for Bathurst this year, then dropped from factory running for spa 24hr, and no confirmation of any Euro program
