Michelin left the GT500 class of SGT at the end of 2023. They couldn’t justify the cost of developing such a super specific compound(s) tire for 1 team in 1 motorsport. And they say it’s too environmentally damaging. They still support GT300 teams though.

Nice to see Impul with their more classic shade of blue again. And ironically enough, their new sponsor is very reminiscent of their Nihon Radiator days.

From the article:

The team’s partnership with Nissan will also extend beyond the racetrack, offering new opportunities for fan engagement, including select dealership activations, race-day experiences and driver meet-and-greets.

Meet-up for a US race this season? VIR from July 18 - 20?

Couldn't make it last year, but I've already booked a place to stay for this year's race weekend. I'm bummed that there is only one Z team for this season, but looking forward to meeting and watching the Flying Lizard team.
@MCN1SMO please let me know if you get early word on any parade, corral, or other special events for VIR!
