The359 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
PK and SRT can't run 1 car. The requirement is for teams to have 2 cars. PK is more likely than SRT.

The other Nissan team is Gigawave.

It's going to be a joint effort between PK and SRT.

All Inkl is back? Great. Hope they run two pros in one car at least- Peter Kox perhaps if Reiter isnt entering themselves. It'll be great to see Lamborghini back in GT1 next year.

The PK SRT joint effort makes sense to me, both teams have only run one car this year so two cars would be a stretch (more so for Pk).

Is there some reason to assume Gigawave won't be back with a pair of Nissans?

Wasn't that confirmed a while back? If not with the Swiss announcement, then on another occasion...?

Let's hope Christophe Bouchut is back too. He could quite feasibly line up in Lambo or Vette squads I would've thought?

I think Bouchut might be back for another full season with Level5 in Grand Am...

Like the last full season?

I hope he stays in Europe, he is more fun to watch in what I consider a proper car.

Most people have! He's a great character though, and fun to watch in the car, so I'll enjoy him on that basis. What he's like outside it with those he shares it with is not as important to me as the above issue is.

I wonder how he gets along with Scott Tucker well enough for the latter to want him back?

Bouchut is a hard charger and lot's of folks don't like his style. Many of the Grand Am boys were upset by him still trying to race when he was a lap or two down. Well "excuse me"! The guy gets paid to drive and so he does. I'm with those who like to see him compete, he certainly makes things interesting.

One driver he drove with ( I think it was Ortelli) commented that Bouchut doesnt like being outpaced by his co driver (who does?) and made Ortelli aware of this when Ortelli did this when they raced for Cirtek. I like Bouchut, he's a very good driver, as a pro he's worth every dollar, I'd just like to see him back in Europe next year.

Plenty more cooling it looks like on those 2010s. I guess they're trying to eliminate those pesky brake fires.

Looks like Nismo have got the ball rolling for 2010, with two new cars already built.

Rickard Rydell says here he may be in FIA GT in 2010 in a customer Aston Martin team, but would rather do touring cars if a good team has space for him:

I don't know why Ratel insists cars alone will draw fans and media, history shows manufactuer promotion is needed to inform the public.

On a national level British GT's had fantastic grids in '98-'99, with plenty of old school GT1's, yet the BTCC still drew significantly larger crowds due to the remaining manufactuer's propping the series up with large marketing budgets.
