Hey all,

been a while since i posted since my last race last october.

Well I'm back racing, this time not in a Porsche GT3 though ...

After running in an Audi R8 LMS Ultra in November, I'm now racing this year the Mercedes Benz SLS AMG GT3.

Also met Kazunori Yamauchi today in the driver's paddock again and had a chat with him.

Here's a short video from today's fridays practice session



Quali & race are tomorrow. Will post updates in this thread

Chris :cheers:
 
Nice. :)👍

Wish I could be out there with you though.
 
Race went terrible.

We got a new set of dunlop development tyres but our engineers didnt know what tyre pressure to use and there wasnt enough time to make appropriate setup changes for the new tyres since our setup was for michelin tyres. Quite frustrating since this was our final chance to prepare for the 24h race ...

here's a pic of the dirty SLS AMG GT3.

28th overall, I feel bad for you.

Hopefully you'll have a better time in the 24.
 
yea, a top 15 would have been very possible. in dry conditions with a bit of luck top 10 ... against the factory teams its kinda hard with 2 other drivers.

as of right now, 24h looks like im going to run in the gt3 cup again ...
 
Hi Chis, I will root for you again during the 24h, trackside :)

Keep it in one piece!
