Yeah I reckon he wrote the press release mid-way through Le Moulinon - Antraigues this morning. He was 3.7 seconds slower after all!

DKR Lola looks foul , plus I cant see that getting an entry , if it isnt going to do one of the championships .

However , I think Alphand has something to do with it , so possibily ?

Well it is going to do one of the championships - the ELMS - that's the whole reason it's been announced.

It's an older machine. I don't think we're in any position to get picky about looks or paint schemes etc. A committed privateer team is something to savour right now.

I think they will probably end up on the reserve list initially. According to this they used to help Alphand Aventures. No relationship this time around from what I can see.

The article says that they will do the ELMS, that's why it was posted in this thread.

DKR used to run Corvettes in Belcar, French GT, LMS and FIA GT (?) if I remember correctly. And thinking they might have experience with smaller protos from participating in the French VdeV series (???).

Apparently they have been outsourcing work to other teams in 2012 and will be running a Z4 in 2013.

The Almeras 997 is GTC (GT3), not GTE, and at least for Silverstone it will be joined by an Audi R8 run by Dragonspeed Racing.

Apparently TDS will be running at least one Z4 in GT Tour, I wouldn't mind it making some ELMS appearances as they are already there for P2.

ELMS and GT Tour race on the same weekend at Imola, let's see if there are teams willing to do both races with the same car.

May 18, same weekend as the Nurburgring 24h (if that even happens, with the current difficulties in the region).

Is it possible a race together gt tour-elms instead of two different races? It would be great!

Yeah, that's what I remember as well... The GT Tour teams are apparently not interested in doing endurance races.

Add another one to the GTE ranks, MTECH reported by Dailysportscar to be fielding "yet another bloody Ferrari" for Duncan Cameron and Matt Griffin.
