Since it's Sebring time, we had to #TBT to this #MX5Cup finish from 2021 👀

Not sure which algorithm or AI has decided I'm in the market for a fighter jet, but I'm not.

@renedeboer @radiolemans Wow, TCR Europe. They used to be a headline event.

@jg910 @radiolemans @24HSERIES There is Radical Cup and Prototype Cup, I think. Here is a time schedule: 24hseries.com/pdf/time-sched…

@radiolemans could you point me toward a timetable for the 12h Mugello meeting? I'd like to know which, if any, support races there are. Can't find anything on the @24HSERIES site.

@renedeboer @radiolemans @24HSERIES Thanks 👍

@radiolemans @24HSERIES Thank you.

@jg910 @24HSERIES Hmm that is odd. It was there recently. Let me check with them now

@specutainment neat NLS stat: driver #480 Audi, Jürgen Nett, is going into his 40th VLN/NLS season as a driver. Also looking to complete 100 class wins this season (afaik he's at 97 now). Was also youngest VLN champion to date, in 1987.

@specutainment Happinessa... the less said about her the better. She used to be part of the NLS broadcast team, that clearly didn't work out. She dodn't set the world on fire driving in Euro-NASCAR.

@specutainment the Bitter is a gussied-up Opel Corsa.

@specutainment 136 cars for NLS2.

@Tom_Harb Vielleicht kriegen wir einen Wiener-Neustadt-Krater billiger.

Der Wien-Krater auf dem Mars ist nicht nach der Stadt Wien, sondern nach dem deutschen Physiker Wilhelm Wien benannt. #WienFakt

@specutainment @resethepicture @Kriss @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio But we were talking about SUVs... 😄

@specutainment @resethepicture @Kriss @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio Toyota won the Tokachi 24hrs with a hybrid Supra in 2007, must have been the first such win for a hybrid car. (Took me a while to remember.)

@specutainment @2012ara1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio Is it true that in NLS2 that BMW will be running an M3 Touring or have I been duped? If true this is awesome... it will make many friends, as did the Volvo's in UK 1994 Touring cars.

@specutainment @Kriss @resethepicture @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio I was there that year but had to leave early; just as we were leaving the press room we watched the car grind to a halt. Painful, esp. for Ritchie Lietz and Raggi. It talked to the two of them not 30mins earlier, they told me the car was fine. Racing drivers are good liars. 😆

@Kriss @resethepicture @jg910 @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio AT one stage it was between that and Ferrari on Hankooks for the race win - we couldn;t decide what was the bigger story - in the end neither won

@Kriss @resethepicture @specutainment @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio Again, it's been done. Lexus had a hybrid SUV at the N24 about..., oh..., 120 years ago? 😁

@jg910 @resethepicture @specutainment @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio Now there is a thought, as long it is not an iX!

@Kriss @radiolemans @resethepicture @specutainment @2012ARA1 @RSL_Studio Or this, maybe.

@jg910 @radiolemans @resethepicture @specutainment @2012ARA1 @RSL_Studio Don't forget the Frickadelli... Klaus Abbelen should be racing one of these to distribute meatballs from a road version of the car!

@resethepicture @specutainment @Kriss @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio Wagons are going away, though. SUVs rule.

@jg910 @Kriss @specutainment @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio I do hope this kicks off a trend of GT3 touring/wagon cars in the future. There would be some great candidates to be added to that fold.

@Kriss @radiolemans @resethepicture @specutainment @2012ARA1 @RSL_Studio And it'll also do food & drink delivery runs during the race. "2 cases of Stolychnaya to Brünnchen, 12 pizzas to Karussell..."

@jg910 @radiolemans @resethepicture @specutainment @2012ARA1 @RSL_Studio That's why it is running in SPX then...

@radiolemans @resethepicture @Kriss @specutainment @2012ARA1 @RSL_Studio And don't anybody mention the spare engine in the back 🤫

@resethepicture @jg910 @Kriss @specutainment @2012ARA1 @RSL_Studio Love this!

@Kriss @specutainment @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio With Schubert running it, the car may become an NLS regular. Running in SP-X, it won't be allowed to win.

@jg910 @specutainment @2012ARA1 @radiolemans @RSL_Studio I am blown away! That looks amazing, I hope that BMW can activate it into some really humorous marketing, as they have in previous time like they did at the Superbowl or when taking a dig at M-B or Porsche.
