I'm sorry if this is off topic, but I wasn't sure what other newsgroup to ask in. Having just recently reinstalled SCGT, I am reminded of how much I really enjoy Sports Car racing. Unfortunately, I live in an are where NASCAR rules. I was hoping that some of you Sports Car fans would be able and willing to provide some links to Real Life web sites. I have found the site for the American Le Mans Series and the Grand American Series, but I haven't found the FIA GT site. (I must admit I haven't had much time to look for this one.) Also, I would really appreciate some explanations or links to explanations on the different classes. Thanks, Kent. -- Replace dev.null with pobox.com to reply
Amazingly....if you type FIA GT into any search engine it gives you the sites you require. This was top of the list in 2 of the searches i did for you. http://www.gtracing.net/gtracing2/index.html Quite why you havent had much time to look when it took me 5 seconds,sorry 15 seconds coz i searched three for you.....you really are short of 15 seconds....then of course another 2 seconds to put it in your Faves list for later when you have more time......and another few seconds to return to desktop after using the search engines. Yes i agree with you.....no time these days. AD

In fact no Jason....i have a more in depth answer... The person involved took the time to find this newsgroup,make his request etc etc That was alot longer than it took me to find that information. I presume he can type in his wants into a search engine,so it isnt just that i can do it better or faster than him,its just damn easy. So i see no problem in helping him,as i usually try to,but chucking in the sarcasm to possibly save him time in the future,because as he stated,he is short of time. Another care in the community announcement. :-p AD

Thank you. As to the rest of your response, yes, it doesn't take much time to do a search. If you have a good idea what you are looking for. I don't recall asking anyone to do a search for me. I am quite capable of doing that myself. I was only asking for some sites that people *knew* of. Following your suggestion, I also did a Google search using FIA GT. Not knowing what sites are good or not I would then spend the next several hours looking at the 62,500 results. I'm not sure even you would do that. Since I'm not that familiar with this type of racing I was hoping someone would be kind enough to point me to a few good sites to get me started. I'm more than willing to search for others on my own.

I agree > Since I'm not that familiar with this type of racing I was hoping > someone would be kind enough to point me to a few good sites to get me > started. I'm more than willing to search for others on my own. www.gtracing.net is the official Website of FIA Grand Touring Championship. If you want to have a look at the beginning of FIA GT in the mid-90s, when GT1 was the top-class, log on to http://www.p9.com/ . Bye Stephan

You should also seriously consider subscribing to this newssite: www.dailysportscar.com - it is not expensive compared to all the info you get - and they cover pretty much anything sportscar these days... Jesper
