They ran both the GT3 and GT4 Spec Cars along with some of the Touring Cars that compete both here and abroad in Europe. Both of my Sons, one from Sacramento, Ca and the other from here in Nevada from down in Las Vegas, were able to head over and catch some of the action for the first round on Saturday the 16th. As usual, these series do not draw a huge amount of spectators, but they do get the diehard true Sports Car and GT Fans that want a chance to see up close these fantastic race machines on an iconic road circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now with great Internet feeds, we are able to stream many different races and I was able to watch a good chunk of the GT3 and GT4 Heats on a You-Tube Channel, while my Sons sent me Live Updates and pics, which was really cool. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few pictures from the GT WORLD CHALLENGE in Somoma 2022 and as always&#8230;&#8230;Thanks for stopping by and when you can&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.TACH IT UP!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"523\" height=\"392\"
