I see the didn't announce the drivers yet, looks like will need to keep that one quiet.
 
Some angles on the 570S looks like a Lotus in my eyes.

View attachment 526295 Reminds me of this:
GT4 is turning into the new GT3...

Other than the fact IIRC GT4 cars (going on what I know of the British GT Championship) are a lot closer to the road going counterparts not only in looks IIRC but setup and GT3 is thoroughbred racing machines, what other difference does GT4 cars have to GT3?

Pretty much it. A modified road car with some aero.

Also a class below in car type, I guess. Cayman instead of Carrera sort of thing.
Audi seem to be flogging the fact their GT3 cars shares a lot of the chassis with the road car, so maybe less difference then what it appears.

It's car to car really. Some are more similar to the road car than others after all the work done to prepare them.

How many G55 road cars have you seen?

None, but I live in Australia so I never thought I would.
I was more focused on the major manufacturer contingent when I made the comment.
The bespoke manufacturers just go with GT4 for its lower costs, I'd assume.

I know. I was trying to say even if it did exist, I probably wouldn't know of it.

Na you would have known about it knowing you. You know most things "sports car". :lol:
 
This is Lexus's RC F for the N24, testing at Fuji. It's not the GT3

I wasn't sure if Race 2 of the GT's was getting shown?
They said on their Facebook page (in one of the comments) that they were only having the Saturday and Sunday races televised this weekend.

Bairdo isn't chalking it up as a win for him as Mies crossed the line first. Adding the CPS post-race instead of actually pitting this time around. A bit weird but it's part of their 'AM' driver approach.

Okay, no wonder the coverage starts at midday. I've got my Foxtel Planner set to record today's races.

Seems there's no coverage at all. At least no live coverage. I should be watching the GT Championship right now but instead I'm watching a repeat of F1 Practice 1. :ouch:

I can't see anything in the guide but knowing Foxtel, it's going to come on at some random time while I'm out of the house.

Bummer. Well, I can live with that knowing I didn't have to put up with the network's shameless cross promotion.
 
Yeah, just sickening. I'm watching Dare Devil season2 until V8s are on.
 
If anyone is interested, I just noticed that the PWC GT, GT Am, GT Cup races from COTA are uploaded on that motor trend on demand app.

Still no GTS or TC races uploaded though :(

Whoa when did this happen? Is this new for 2016?

You mean the website update or the videos?
If you mean website then yes, but if you mean the videos then they've been posting unlisted videos of the full races since atleast 2014.
