As predicted, the Japanese have done something the Germans haven't in cars built to the same chassis regulations...make cars that can race well.

What about it? Has been done like that since the series inception. Or are you taking about the split start?

TBH, I think the new GT500 cars look a bit stupid. With their high bodies and narrow wings, they look like glorified touring cars.

But who the hell cares about that in the long run when the racing is this awesome?

So they have the same rules as DTM, have 'endurance' races and drive on a narrow track.

What excuses does DTM still have for their terrible racing :lol:?

Attitudes of the organisers?

Penalties for touching. Cars fighting for position told to move over because the car behind has pitted.

Seems stupid to hold a race weekend while most of your top drivers are racing in WEC. Couldn't they match the calander for that?

If any of you follow Sportscar365's Facebook page, they've just put up a link to the SuperGT YouTube account with correctly subtitled in English broadcasts. I'd link it but I'm on my phone.
