There are several threads running right now on the racing Corvettes across several HT boards. This weekend, the new GT2 cars hit the track at Mid Ohio for the first time.

I thought you guys might like a peek at the new car. Much more in common with a real road based Vette, but MAN am I going to miss the big GT1 cars!!!

Can't wait to see the race! The 'Vettes look awesome.

I like the new Morgan that's racing in GT3. Haven't seen any races yet, just pics on line. Here's one.
Guess I'll have to buy the new MB version now so I can make my own Morgan race team.

Very nice. I like that fact that the race cars will be closer to the street cars. Both the Vette and that Morgan are uber cool.

Are you hoping they do a Morgan, or hoping they do a Morgan in racing livery?

If you're hoping they make one, they already are. It may even be in it's second color. Somebody doen the board in the MB section posted a pic of what looks like a dark gray one.

Here's a link to a short you tube video showing the Morgan as it won the GT3 class in May this year at Silverstone in England.

Oh yes, I should have been more specfic. The Racing Livery is what i was referring to:thumbsup:. I have about 8 of the Mbx Morgans and I love every single one!!! So far i have a Burgundy, Blue, Light (Sky) Blue and silver. Some I have Duplicates of. I just cant seem to get enough of that car!!!
