Apparently so, Klaus Engelhorn driving, will that be Citation Cup do you think? I heard earlier in the year that they may run a C5R, seems they have upgraded

Probably a error. Looks like the list s updated, because the PSI cars weren't on the list on the days before.

Good that Bartles is back at Vitaphone, although I was kinda hoping we might see Salo and Gollin out again in an MC12!
Maybe next year eh!
Still no Saleens either, I am very surprised as I thought Ratel had mentioned that one might be on the way?

FIA GT Round 4, Monza
And so this weekend see's round 4 of this years FIA GT championship at Monza and the grid is looking stronger than it ever has this year IMO, we have 14 GT1 cars and 6 citation cup entries along with 11 cars in GT2. Will the race be a repeat of the fantastic race we had in 2005? It will certainly be interesting to see, all the same cars are there apart from the Ferrari 550's having dropped out and the Aston Martin and Lamborghini Murciealgo's having now joined the series. Monza always makes for great racing and it should be a interesting race. Vitaphone for the win? 
GT2 could be interesting too, Porsche vs Ferrari should be interesting. The 430 supposedly has a slight power advantage over the 997 and with Monza's high speed nature the balance appears to be tipped in the Favour of Ferrari. Personally I cant see anyone getting near the AF Corse, Scuderia Ecosse and BMS cars on pace although maybe 1 or 2 Porsches might. It will certainly be interesting to see if the citation cup cars are tripping up the lead GT2 cars like we had at Silverstone. All in all it looks like being a good weekend for FIA GT, added to that we have FIA GT3 on the line up too, all of which will be shown on Men and Motors here in Europe.

Whoops didnt see that there is already another thread for this event, any chance of the FIA GT Monza thread being made a hot topic?

SHOCKING! LMS, which is further away, is higher up this list.
Get this sorted out, now. >_<

My feelings exactly Minimangler, for some reason FIA GT event threads dont appear to warrant being made a Hot topic whilst the ALMS and LMS events do. Oh well.

Looks pretty much business as usual.
Jet Alliance Aston is fastest DBR9 hounded by Vitaphone MC12.
Times are nice and close which bodes well for qualifying?

Ooh, damn this Charity Bike Ride!
I shall have to tape the race and avoid TT when I get home!
But yay nonetheless! Is there work being done on the Pit Building, or is that metalwork on the roof just for show?
