Dubai 24 hours
Just surfing the web and came across this:
http://www.24hdubai.com/ Anyone know of teams likely to make the trip? (I got the link from Alzen motorsport so I would guess the alien Porsche will go). I know it says it's for touring cars, but the rules are going to be along the lines of the 'ring24 which is mixed. Plus endurance racing seems to be more popular in here. |

No the Alzen Turbo Porsche will not go , the race is limited to touringcars with 400hp max.

So really we are looking at GT3 cars as being the top class, bit of a shame but the race would still hold a small ammount of interest for me if the top class was a GT3 class. Perhaps we could get a few decent Porsches and Ferrari 360s....
Whoops, sorry just noticed the words "Touring cars". A shame IMO as the Porsches and Ferrari's would be eligable power wise as neither car in GT3 trim would exceed the 400bhp limit. |

The WTCC BMW 320i would be an eligible choice for example. |

I know of an E46 M3 (circa 380hp) that is doing this race, so M3's would certainly be one to consider. Would have thought that SuperTourer's would be too fragile for the distance, so probably WTCC's and various production sloon type race series entrants...

I was more thinking on Seat Cupra's and Renault Clio's. Don't know about DSC, but probably yes.
