No Peugot this year, which is not unexpected but still sad.

Next year still going to be amazing if we get there.

btw if you don't know what turismo carretera is, it's the most popular racing series in Argentina and also the oldest continuously operating racing series on the planet, having run since the 1930s

it's kinda like if mods had become the national series for NASCAR instead of stock cars, the cars are all very modified versions of 1960s sedan cars (this is an Argentine Ford Falcon). you might know it as "that series that keeps showing up in those compilations of massive crashes from South American racing series". also Norberto Fontana won the series once, and Norberto Fontana is cool.




also there were a bunch of weird things over the years, like the series having co-drivers until like 2010. or that they still raced on public roads on occasion until the late 90s.

They also have a track that's like, what if Indy had chicanes at the end of each straight and it kinda owns???

Spa Six Hours was fun, I watched the entire thing.

Next weekend is the Bathurst 12 hour which is in a different spot this year due to restrictions over the summer. Because there is another gt race happening in France on the same weekend craft bamboo racing is the only international team coming along. The remainder of the field is locals and while Bathurst isn’t a big drive for me I’m kinda glad I didn’t get tickets this year.
As we are heading into winter here and their desire to finish at dusk the race starts at 5:15 local time giving them close to 2 hours of dark running early in the day.

That's a shame, it's usually a good race but that field is small, even with the locals.

"Do you ever wish you could carjack one of the GT3s"
"Definitely. I mean, video games don't have that effect on people"

Loved the interview with the Rockstar Games guy, except they're evil and all that

Also isn't Spa one of the races with the Festival on at the circuit, so they're probably off drinking wheat beer and dancing to EDM in the field next door.

Enjoy some highlights of the 1998 race, where the Le Mans-winning Porsche 911 GT1 '98 took to the skies.


Also this video rules. Hodge podge 90s American Sports cars are so funny but also rule.

Does the the track need to be Catagory 1? If so Australia doesn't have any permanent Cat 1 tracks.

Edit: I guess The Bend is Cat 2?

I guess it seems so counter-intuitive to kill a really healthy category that pads out your grids. If they don't get the numbers in LMDh then it'll be silly with 10 protos and 40 gt3s.
