Another massive factor is cost as well as revenue and earnings. Much like Super GT the DTM ran very expensive purpose built cars from 2000 onward that were only used for the DTM, but as viewership revenue declined in the 2010s and development costs for the cars kept rising the Manufacturers and Organizer were looking to move the DTM into another Regulation, they chose Class 1 used in Super GT so DTM Cars could compete in Super GT and vice versa but sadly that never came to fruition. In 2018 Mercedes left and was replaced in 2019 by a Swiss Private Team fielding HWA (HWA normaly builds racecars and streetcars for Mercedes-AMG) built Aston Martins using 2.0L Turbo-Engines. They were not competitive however and the team was tighter on budget than Audi and BMW so when the Pandemic hit in 2020 they retired from the Series after just one season. Audi followed suit so only BMW was left and after a shortened 2020 Season the Decision was made to move to the GT3 Regulation for 2021.

@@l33tnobody1337 I remember when they joined with SuperGT. For a few years, it looked like we'd still get some interesting cars out of it. Ironically both series already had similar cars, so it felt natural. I personally think DTM joining GT3 is a terrible precedent that'll lead to SuperGT doing the same.

@SonicBoone56 10 ай бұрын

Ikr. It's not like they do it out of safety either. JGTC and SuperGT, much like early GT2/GT3 and modern day GT4, used to be whatever a Japanese team could get their hands on. Then they decided to ban limited production or concept cars (which was selectively enforced considering Honda had ran the HSV-010 and NSX Concept GT), effectively keeping a lot of interesting cars out of the mix. Sad to say, but modern SuperGT is very stagnant in diversity, much like modern GT3. GT500 has always been rather bland, but GT300 was once wildly unpredictable. Now GT300 is a bunch of GT3 and DTM cars with a few dedicated SuperGT cars. Quite sad too as electric cars are gaining a foothold. One would think these series would allow a wild west shootout before it inevitably goes all electric.

If you're looking for a lot of footage in general of the series, a creator by the name of Rocket Pencil has every single race (bar Round 2 of 1994 season for some reason) and a few special events that were held uploaded on their channel. On the other hand, if you're looking for a quicker 3hr recap of 1994 - 2003 seasons of JGTC, Alex Ring Driver has two videos covering that time period of races through highlights (not sure on the origins of the video content as I didn't even know SuperGT had an official year in review up on YT and found those two creators first).

How cool would it have been to have a series back in the early to mid 90's with the top class consisting of the Lamborghini Diablo, Ferrari f50, McLaren F1, Jaguar XJ220, Honda / Acura NSX, Ford GT90(I remember prototype photos and playing it in need for speed 2), Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Dodge viper, Bugatti EB-10, Toyota Supra, Porsche 911 GT1, and others. That had been awesome. I know the f50 wasn't looked upon favorably, but I absolutely loved the design. But still the Diablo might just be my favorite car ever amongst all that I love. It was the one on my three-ring binder in elementary school and I just loved looking at that thing during class.

I remember when I was like 13 or so I was watching GT3 videos on KZfaq and when I watched the Japanese intro I was so shocked and excited. I had no idea, after at the time, I think 6 or 7 years of playing it over and over again that there was a car that I had never seen before. I fell in love with it immediately and was obsessed about finding a way to play the Japanese version for years. About 10 or so years later, I finally got my wish and played the Japanese version. But I didn't know what fucking event you win it in. So after lots and lots of Googling, I found it! 1/4 chance of getting it in the 78 laps at Monaco Endurance race. Incredibly, I managed to get it on my first try! Yeah, that car wasn't that good aye. It was definitely the quickest but it didn't have the best handling. Although I don't hate the car, and actually had a lot of fun on the journey to get it, The Denso Sard Supra is still my number one.

They kept racing and racing and racing no matter what happened and had fun doing it. The JLOC Diablo's are my favorite non-Japanese manufacturer race cars to have raced in the JGTC and to see them get this kind of recognition is nothing short of amazing.

I own a 1998 diablo. I bought it with a blown up engine for $4,100. I built a 2002 diablo SV engine with diamond forged pistons, titanium rods that took me a year to save for, custom ground cams, fully ported, port matched and polished heads shaved two thousandths of an inch. I built my own equal length headers and stainless 4 inch collectors to an oval 5 inch merge then out into dual 3 1/2 inch into a stock murcialago muffler i bought on ebay, out the center of the rear bumper. Custom, self built Reiger/KW coilovers that work better than both of them did combined before i did all the mods and made them into the priceless, frankenstien, one off units they are now. I had them powdercoated purple and the springs gold they look so sick. It runs on a haltech nexus g2, milspec wiring i did myself, the cage is completely seam welded to the unibody, a, and c pillars. I run it on ignite e90 and 3 stages of N2o that dont hit until wide open in 2nd gear. In third the 2nd kit comes on, 4th 5th and 6th its all 3 kits, all 300hp. In 5th gear it made 1091 wheel horsepower 622 tq. Its an absolute screaming menace of an automobile. Its completely blacked out with purple inners and black outers on the 19x10/20x12 3 piece wheels and gold lugs. It does 236mph on the limiter in 6th and gets there in just over 13 seconds. Its BLINDINGLY fast. But it doesnt really feel like armegeddon is happening like my 800whp b5 s4 does. That car is so violent i dont like to drive it with a passenger. It scared my wife so bad shell never ride in it again. It just hits THAT hard ya know? All wheel drive man.

Lamborghini requesting PD to not put their car outside of Japan is surely a big mistake in my opinion, I don't care about licensing, the car is a part of the JGTC roster and it should've at least been in the NTSC-U version of GT3. Overall, this Diablo is the underdog that everyone wants to see it beat the big three JGTC cars. Such grace on wheels does not have to suffer from reliability issues as it could have been David among dozens of Goliaths.

First time viewer (thanks, algorithm), really pleased I gave this vid a click. I especially enjoyed the way you covered off little side stories and examples that were relevant to the main theme. I find that the story of JLOC in GT500 is such a shining example of just how much work goes into running a racecar at the highest level. You really nailed it by mentioning JLOC running a single car all on their own compared to the many McLaren F1s out in the world. The data and knowledge gained by having multiple cars to lean on is massively valuable. It's things like being able to find optimal tyre pressures, getting an understanding of how the car behaves with different suspension alignments and spring weights, finding the brake configurations that work best, even simple stuff like driver comfort and ergonomics. And you being a Gran Turismo youtuber makes it all the more relevant - these are all things that we take for granted in the virtual world, but an actual race weekend is a very different beast as the opportunity to trial infinite combinations and variables just doesn't exist. Great video, looking forward to more in the future.

BMW did consider it, apparently. but the GT3 switch (and they had a batch of cars ready to run) in DTM ended that. R-Motorsport were going to run both, apparently....with the Astons, but never had the money in reality.

Great video! More like this please, I havent followed motorsports beyond F1 in periods, however clearly there is much interesting history that deserve to be broadcasted.

First time i drove this was Via Advan Racing for PS1, it was really strange when i found out it was a hidden car in Gran Turismo

Thank you for making this video. It's such a breath of fresh air to create lesser known stories around the world. This earned a full proper sub from me man.

Your videos really hit the spot for a motorsport obsessed, Gran Turismo fanboy like me. Thank you for the time spent researching and editing these masterpieces 🏁

This was a very well mad documentary. I knew nothing about the subject (well, other than knowing of the base Lamborghini models) and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you!

If u have more ideas of untold stories like this that u could make a video out of, u could easily make a sieries out of them. As a gran turismo fan it would be nice to learn the background of some of the cars which haven't got much recognition. Apart from that i must really admit that i slightly prefer your gt videos (with my favorite being the nostalgia one) the reason is that no matter how much i 've searched on yt u are the only channel that discusses deeper and more controversial topics than just the economics of gt7

the diablo didnt only race in japan though........john bowe drove one in austrailia but not sure about the category...i was searching for v8 supercar races in early 2000`s.........full respect to JLOC.....sometimes being an underdog means your a winner....especially with a car rarely seen or raced.

Youre the only youtuber I've ever seen (besides emplemon and slapshoes) that seems to hold the same amount of passion for motorsports and cars in general that I do. Definitely do more motorsports videos, this was riveting❤

Thank you for this! This car was always such an oddity to me growing up and seeing it in the early gran turismo games

Funnily enough, GT500 cars are closer to the Hypercar cars of the WEC than GT3 cars in terms of performance. Yes, I know they're technically closer to LMP2 cars, but I'm going more on the fact that the Hypercar could supposedly spawn road cars, which we all know ended up being kinda BS. What I'm saying, is that the Supra GT500 is closer to the GR010 than it is to the Lexus RC-F GT3, to put the example of Toyota.

Your videos are serious nostalgia bombs for me, the inclusion of "One more win" brough back countless hours of R4 for me. I miss those games so much. Awesome videos as always!

If I had a cent every time “Lamborghini” and “due to financial difficulties” are in the same sentence, I would probably have at least a couple of cents lol Great video!
