Broadcast details for Australia and rest of the planet.

The event, featuring both the Fanatec GT World Challenge Australia powered by AWS and Monochrome GT4 Australia Series, can be viewed for free, anywhere in the world, on the GT World YouTube channel.

Also, for Australian viewers, all races will be broadcast live via Foxtel and Kayo.

And for fans keen to get even closer to the action, all three days at Phillip Island will feature free entry.

The broadcast will start at 2:15pm on Saturday, concluding the first of two one-hour races for Fanatec GT Australia.

Fans watching via the GT World YouTube page will get extra content with the podium presentation and post-race interviews.

On Sunday, the broadcast will start at 11am.

The broadcast, to be delivered by motorsport production house AVE, will feature a gun commentary team, headed by Australia’s star sportscar caller Richard Craill, alongside five-times Bathurst 1000 winner and regular Supercars TV pundit Garth Tander.

Supporting Craill and Tander will be Cameron van den Dungen and Jonathan Simon.

I don't have Foxtel or Kayo.

I guess I'll just have to go for a 1 hour drive on cruise control and see it all in 3D.

Hmm...

At first I was thinking GT2, but I've got no idea.
I see that as an announcement that the SRO are replacing the Shannon's Speed Series as Promoter.

To be lead by the local GT3 & GT4 categories, it remains to be seen how many, if not all, categories under the Shannons umbrella make it across the off season.

Alright cool. Reading into it too much.

Damn! Those times make Friday a very long day at the track.
 
Saturday as well. I want to go, but geez. Sunday would be ideal, but I want to watch GT3 as well.

Really don’t feel like driving back home after all that. My niece lives 15 minutes from the track, brother-in-law 20 minutes from the track, but I’m not staying overnight in Sydney. Even though it’ll take me under two hours to get home.

I've only ever spent longer than 12 hours at a racetrack once, and that was as a Flag Marshall for a 24hr race at Winton.

I would go on the Saturday purely for the GT3 category, but that is a very long day no matter how keen for the attraction.
 
Update
I notice that the Rouse cars specify a 10' diff centre, an upgrade over the 9' all the Australian spec cars used.
The 9' had an unbreakable reputation locally... until Andrew Miedecke broke a race-spec housing in half in 1988.

Also, the Australian cars were allowed to upgrade from the 5-speed Getrag, to a Hollinger 6-speed from 1 January 1991.
 
Still, "small" power figures compared to the DJR cars. ;)

On a different production series. Cant wait to see this. Been following as much as I can. Will be a beast when on track.

Yes, my thoughts exactly.

As I began reading about the project, it didn't take me long to wish for a DJR version at its peak, as a personal preference.

If anyone needs reminding, search for and watch Dick's lap in the 1992 Bathurst shoot-out.
That's a Group A Sierra wound as tight as you'll ever see.
