Jaguar are making a GT4 car for British GT. Cool to see them back in motorsports between this and their Formula E team.

The Ginetta P1 should exclusively be driven by drivers of the greatest racing series in the world, the Ginetta Juniors.

Not very fair that a guy like Allan Simonsen is dead while Tracy Krohn lives to terrorize another race.

Englishtown is shutting down its dragstrip effective immediately, so no NHRA Summernationals this year (after the schedule with them on it was released, oops).

As long as you're not in the US I think the official IMSA.TV stream is free and it works.

You are correct. It’ll be streaming on their mobile app, or through YouTube.

Cool thing about modern endurance racing, if it's happening it's probably being officially streamed somewhere on Youtube.

I'm perplexed as to why they still don't have separate colors for the Protos and the GTLM cars. Same with the PC and GTD cars before PC went away. OK, you want red to designate the pro classes, but there are plenty of situations where it's handy to be able to differentiate at-a-glance between P and GTLM, like in the spotters guides or especially in the scoreboard tickers.

I'd say let protos not take any colors anymore and give GTLM the red for distinction. I think the same colors was to designate between pro and am and think people are smart enough the cars are different enough you can tell between an FLM-09 and a fleet of GT3 cars. I'm gonna get an energy drink, my cat sleep next, to me and bang out the OP for the new thread. Thanks for reminding me iospace.
