Sounds like some sort of S2 project to me.
A SLK would make for an interesting addition.

Anyone more info about the history of Renntech?

I believe that it is a after-market Mercedes tuner/performance house that was started up by an ex-AMG engineer.

They would be a very good addition to the ALMS. They are a pretty well known company and are regular competitors in the 1lap of America.

That car would have Klaus Ludwig turning in his grave - if he weren't alive still.

Bramzel · 29 Oct 2005, 23:39 (Ref:1447122)

Why?

cybersdorf · 29 Oct 2005, 23:48 (Ref:1447124)

Because it's not very goodlooking. But let's see what it will look like in reality.

Bramzel · 30 Oct 2005, 00:11 (Ref:1447138)

That photoshop isn't looking too bad. I agree that the new SLK isn't the most pretty car available, but there are worse ones as well.

Another possible IMSA GT2 (S2) entry for 2006... Chuck Goldsborough/Team Lexus IS350

cybersdorf · 30 Oct 2005, 00:27 (Ref:1447144)

I thought that was for GrandAm? Change of plans?

Hugewally · 30 Oct 2005, 00:36 (Ref:1447147)

There minor confusion going on with this, but everyone is thinking its actually for IMSA.

cybersdorf · 30 Oct 2005, 00:48 (Ref:1447157)

Everyone including the team itself??

paul-collins · 30 Oct 2005, 01:19 (Ref:1447178)

Well, the team has used the phrase "GT2" in their email to the person who's making this public. One assumes it's destined, therefore, for S2?

It looks very DTM so I don't think Klaus would turn.

This is a touring car not a GT.

19dodge · 30 Oct 2005, 12:42 (Ref:1447473)

yes, thats what the G2 class is for (4 door touring cars)

The G2 class is NOT for 4 door touring cars only. It is for any two door or four door car that does not exactly meet ACO GT2 specs, or isn't homologated as such, that IMSA feels like allowing in.

ger80 · 30 Oct 2005, 13:42 (Ref:1447522)

Its S2, not G2
G2 are Lotus, Mosler, ... in FIA GT

**FIRE** · 30 Oct 2005, 14:06 (Ref:1447542)

Correct me if I am wrong:

ALMS 2006
LMP1
LMP2
GT1
GT2
S2 (with cars like in Speed World Challenge GT championship????)

aeroehl · 30 Oct 2005, 14:58 (Ref:1447568)

S2 is part of GT2.

On another note, Scott Altherton said we will have a S2 entry for 2006 at LS.

So IOW, PMSG CEO SA said at LS there would be an IMSA S2 in ALMS LMGT2 in '06? OK!

Gee I didn't know one could post on the internet via an Enigma device - now where's Grandpa's codebook?
