Lamborghini Super Trofeo 2014

Lamborghini's Blancpain Super Trofeo is the world's fastest 1-make series (although the Ferrari Challenge might debate this). This is a pretty cool series and I'd recommend checking out the next race!

-We just had an exciting race at the former RAF base known as Silverstone! The next race will be held in Asia and then the series comes to the US on June 27th for the Watkins Glen event followed by Canada, Virginia, Atlanta. Please see my other post on series schedules for the full season's listings here:

Unfortunately, I have not been able to find a tv channel that broadcasts this race series but Lamborghini streams their events live (follow the link through for the Lambo Youtube home page):










This is actually a support race to the Blancpain Endurance Series:

The Blancpain Endurance Series is the world’s leading GT3 racing series with grids of up to 60 cars last season. The 2014 series will visit Monza, Silverstone, Paul Ricard, Spa-Francorchamps (for the famous Total 24 Hours of Spa) and the Nürburgring, for a 1000 km race. Silverstone is the second round of this year’s series as the prestigious series enters its fourth season.

Some of the most iconic automotive brands will come to together on May 24-25 when teams representing Aston Martin, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Jaguar, Lamborghini, McLaren, Mercedes, Nissan and Porsche do battle on the Silverstone Grand Prix circuit.

The cars competing this weekend are GT3 supercars with upwards of 500bhp of power, driven by some of the best professional, amateur and gentlemen drivers in the Europe. Many top British teams and drivers compete in the series and will be keen to shine on home turf this weekend.

Last season saw an incredible average of 59 cars entered over the season, with a peak of 66 at the Total 24 Hours of Spa. For 2014, a number of new teams and drivers will join the series regulars, which most notably sees the return of Bentley to international motorsport, an event that will be welcomed by many fans.

Support Races:

Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo
Cooper Tires British F3 International Series
Formula Renault 2.0 North European Championship




And, today, Bentley won on their home turf! This is their first win of the season and is special for the team since they haven't won an international race in quite some time

These Lamborghini run the same Castrol 10W60 oil as the E9x M3s.
Just thought I'd drop that in.

I think they'll broadcast each race via YouTube. Watkins Glen will be a huge weekend with lots of IMSA events occurring. I'm still trying to figure out another media outlets, if any though
