Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the number of moments that take your breath away!

Free download. Good race. In Japanese.

Someone like Mpat, no TV, might really appreciate post like this one.

Is it just, for a moment, a thread?
You wanna be the man, you gotta Name That Car!

That's something I will need to devote considerable thought to....... :scratch:

The Super GT series, formerly known as the All-Japan Grand Touring Car Championship or JGTC (全日本GT選手権, Zen Nihon GT Sensyuken), is a grand touring car race series promoted by the GT-Association (GT-A). Though the JGTC was authorized by the Japan Automobile Federation and recognized by the FIA, the Super GT is authorized directly by FIA.

And AFAIK they plan a rules unification with DTM soon, if this idea was not put to bed...

DTM is also talking with Grand-Am about  sharing rules. Would make for an interesting Daytona 24 if DTM and Super GT team came over.
I make poor decisions, but I have a good time.

You and Faksta are really piquing my interest.

DTM needs to do something other than the Merc Audi duopoloy.

Interesting. 

BTW:  Thanks for the links!

Seems like somebody would have to change their rules package pretty extensively to get Rolex GT, DTM, and Super GT into the same performance/price/technology ballpark. The Rolex cars are relatively simple tube-frames running stock block engines and stock-appearing bodywork.   DTM also runs tubers, but with quite a bit more unobtanium and all manner of aero flips, flaps, and flugels. IIRC, the Super GT cars start with a production tub and go nuts from there. (although the last time I paid attention, it was still called JGTC.) I'm not sure if they're looking to dumb down DTM and Super GT, getting costs down and car counts up, or maybe they were just looking to add DTM as a support race at Daytona. Could be interesting either way.

I honestly doubt that DTM bosses would agree their child to be considered a support race for a series which is basically at the same level.

As far as I understand the Germans are tending to make a step towards GT regulations. At least, that's what I've read BMW is expecting. They want to make their cars eligible for some other races too.

SuperGTs are said to be built around carbon monocoque, BTW.

I don't have it.  If I can find it I will upload it.

Glad you like it.  Keep checking back for race downloads.
