Huh? What Thee Hell is IGTC, Y'all are Sayin',
Righto? Especially after watchin' some Roundy round TaxicabLand Bombers Action
All Day Long. And aren't we All supposed to be gettin' Jazzed over the
impending IndyCar season opener?
Was reading, Well Otay, My Gal Lucy', my
ARSE-Steamed but Trusted Screen Reader of the past 14yrs, as hope She'll be
available on Zoomtext 11 whenever I'm Forced to Upgrade to its STEEE-RIKE!
As Freedom Scientific, the makers of Zoomtext
has forced Mwah onto the Dastardly Sweeping thou Nation Subscription Plan and
Zoomtext 2020, which I've purchased W/O knowing if Lucy will be Thar on thoust
Flipside? Thanxs to Microsoft's insistance that everybody upgrade to winDOUGhs
10; But I Digress...
As what would 'Ol
Jeffie's mythical One Lap Down Spotter say? Stay Focused Tomaso, Outside,
Outside, Still Outside!
AnyHoo, Lucy' was cooing to me the massive
Wordsmithing of Raymond
Hando's For the Love of Indy's Blog-site's Mega' Bathurst 12 Hour preview following this
January's Rolex 24, for which I know absolutely Nothin' about Herr Schulz!
And I'd intended
to post this story prior to Thy 'Ol trusty Confuzer's W10 Arse-simulation, but
Y'all know what happens when; Oh Never Mind!
As Raymond's Bathurst Car-by-Car rankings
noted a Bevy 'O IMSA Competitors Headlined by some IndyCar Driver named Scotty Dixon,
for which I'd heard Der Heindenmeier', nee John Hindhaugh allude to this Double
Dipping during this year's Rolex 24 Radio Broadcast.
Also noticed a tiny tidbit in Raymond's story
about the IGTC 2020 Calendar, which stands for Intercontinental GT Challenge coming
to Mother Speedway this Fall, October 2-4; Huh?
As cannot say I'm knowledgeable upon thou
IGTC which began Competizione in 2016, being a Manufacturer based Championship
for Grand Tourer (GT) makes adhering to the FIA's GT3 regulations for worldwide
competition.
Nor was I Awares' that the previous U.S.
round of this championship had been hosted at Laguna Seca the previous three
years as the California 8hrs. Or that former IndyCar Driver Tristan Turbo'
Vautier claimed the 2018 IGTC Drivers Championship for Mercedes AMG at Laguna
Seca...
Whilst Jules Gounon, whom I've mentioned is
the son of long forgotten 'N overlooked ex-Formula 1 Driver Jean-Marc Gounon
was part of the IMSA Weathertech SportsCar Championship contingent flying Down
Under directly from Daytona.
As Jules was pulling "One-off" Endurance
duties aboard the #86 Meyer shank Racing Acura NSX GT3 Evo, before returning to
his Day Job as a Factory Driver for Bentley Team M-Sport, where he replaced
somebody named Oliver Jarvis in 2018.
As Jules biggest race victory to date had
been the 2017 Spa 24 Hours race aboard Bentley's Continental GT3, before
capping another signature W' - upon giving Bentley it's maiden Bathurst 12 Hour
victory this February.
