Hello Brian

Welcome to the forum, thank you for joining the fans and giving direct information rather than rumours which normally abound.

You said that you wont accept any more... are you not accepting new cars, or teams?

Not accepting more cars seems strange to me, especially with big tracks like the Nurburgring, Spa and Barcelona. Can you tell us a bit more about that decision Brian? Thx.

Fantastic quality on the stream once you click the HD option... ACO feeds look like total jokes compared to this service!!

I hoped the bigger restrictors for GT2s would've made them stand out a bit more, GT3s are too close...

So Peter Kox almost on pole in a GT3 ahead of the GT2 cars. Im not sure what kind of restrictions and BOP GTOpen has but this is adding fuel to the arguement that GT3s are getting faster than GT2s.

I dont understand the building of spec built GT2s if the GT3 which share more road cars parts and surely cost less are going to be faster??

Hi,

I'm glad you liked the new web streaming,
will ne one of my best efforts during this season to provide you the best quality we can have!

Unfortunately we won't be able to provide the full HD every time as it depends a lot on the connection we got directly on the tracks!!

Regarding the times of the SuperGT the pole has been set in 1.43 during the first qualifying, so between two professional SuperGT and GTs there is a second.

Here you can download the q1 times : http://gtopen.net/contenuti/files/AL...GTO_Qual_1.pdf

( You obviously understand that on the Gallardo there was Peter the "extraterrestrian" Kox! )

regarding the cap of 35 cars:

there are many reason that I will try to explain you during next week when I will be less occupied than now on the track,
but consider mainly that our focus is to provide the maximum attention and revenue for every driver and team involved in the series, in line to give them the rights tools to gain money for what they do ( the teams) and gain money from sponshorships (the drivers)

(As an example our championship offers a media exposure on TV that allows easily to express a value of 703€ for each SECOND the car is being shoted on TV during the broadcasting.)

For this reason we only chose the best tracks with the best paddock services and with the best hotellery services near the circuit.
We organize on the same events also the European F3 Open ( 26cars!!) and we do have with us the FIA F2.
The main issue then will be that even on the main tracks we visit during the season there will not be enough space to provide high standard "let say accomodation" for the teams on the paddock!

Beside that make a qualifying session with 50cars on the grid (1 car each 100m...) will kill the sportivity of the events as There will be for sure on pole the only luky guy who had found a clean lap!

And I tell you that as a driver!

Cheers

Brian

Well now they are... victory on first outing.

The race itself was quite good all things considered, GT3s weren't as quick as I feared
