Correct Tourer.
AGP to kick off the calendar provides great visibility at Australia's largest motorsport event. SMP with V8SC as support and then headlining at The Bends, PI and Sandown gives good balance across the season. Less is more in 2018 |

Nothing wrong with different classes and varying car speeds, it makes it more interesting for me, so i'm glad it's adopted in AGT I'm not a fan of mixing sprint races with endurance races in any series though, keep them separate in my opinion. Tony Quinn addressed all those issues a number of times this year in interviews on the Inside Supercars podcast |

You would imagine Tony Quinn will have a car or 2. MPC, Hackett, YNA, SRM, Talbot/Walkinshaw, Walls, Twigg, Manolias, Zagame, Bates etc
Miedecke Motorsports were advertising for a mechanic for the GT3 car last week which is a good sign. |

Scudd and MacPherson gone. Twigg is in CC so would have to do double duty if he is in GT. As will Storey, Evans, Miles. And you are scraping the barrell using Manolias as an example of a shining light |

Scraping the bottom of the barrell?? He either turns up or he doesn't - wasn't your question about who would turn up with STM rather than conversations of performance capability? You can also add Dylan O'Keefe in the HSY Audi for MPC Last edited by D.R.T.; 19 Feb 2018 at 22:28. |

Great to see Tony back especially after his accident last year.
Has raced an Aston Martin, Mercedes and now and Audi in 12 months. Not a bad gig |

Erebus Motorsport has commenced discussions with several manufacturers including Bentley as it looks to make a return to GT racing. The Melbourne squad has been longing to rejoin the GT3 scene having been absent since contesting the 2016 Liqui-Moly Bathurst 12 Hour with a pair of Mercedes SLS GT3s. In a bid to resurrect its GT racing roots the team is currently involved in talks with number of brands as it seeks to acquire new GT3 race cars. |

Word floating around is that Round 1 at the Australian Grand Prix is over subscribed with entries. Hopefully some of this momentum and competitors continue into the rest of the season

Pretty impressive drawcard for the event and Australian GT.
I am not sure of grid density however one would imagine it would it around the 40 car mark. So a decent spectacle - hopefully plenty of green flag running. |

Great news for round 1 of the Australian GT. Good to see to Marranello back out after they were MIA at the Bathurst 12 hour Last edited by D.R.T.; 6 Mar 2018 at 02:59. |

Australian GT confirms AGP sprint format
so same format as last years gP, which IMO is good Pros in Race 1&3, Ams in 2&4 No driver penalties for skill |
