Should be interesting to say the least and now we have four AWD cars in WC GT. I think the Skyline has the potential to be fast because is was and is so extensively raced in Japan (so someone has the go fast bits for it) it's whether the team has the resources ($$$) and engineering to pull it all together. It's going to be a crazy year in GT with the Aston Martins, Caddies, Vettes, Vipers, Porsches, Audi S4, GT0 and the list goes on and on . Me personally...I'm hoping the #24 Volvo can get the job done

wow.. Sean Morris is doing that?

cwazy wabbits..... I wish them the best of luck but it seems they dont have the financial back-up or the extensive experience the other teams have to be competitive.. but heck, mumford gave us all surprise so anything is possible.

Geez, those guys get really bent out of shape over nothing. A three page argument over skylines. I keep expecting to see the fight sceen from Anchorman. "Como estan beetches!"

Dammit nils, if you're gonna let the c-c.com secrets out of the bag, you've gotta post over there more.

Thank you Sir! I head out to start testing soon, I'll be at Summit Point next week (10th and maybe the 11th and 12th) then off to Sebring for Tuesday Wednesday testing, qualify Thursday and Race Friday. We all just wonder how much faster the factory boys have gotten over the winter (must be nice to have a year round testing budget!). The old girl was fast last time I drove her. Here's to hoping fast last year is still fast this year

Good luck! I'll be watching!

As long as the Volvo stays together, I think you'll have a great season! You (and the team) showed great promise last year!
