If it's anything like the las two seasons of JGTC speed will carry a 30min highlights shows for each race with GT500 and GT300 review shows every now and then. Unfortunately they only air these episodes after teh season is complete, around fall to winter.

Until then keep an eye on

www.jgtc.net
www.motorsport.com

For news and pics.

I can't see any reason why the VQ35 would be restricted considering the Toyotas use 5.2L 8 cylinders.

I would imagine that having a proven developed motor like the VQ30DETT from last year's GT-R's is better than development of the VQ35DE in terms of cost vs anticipated gains and reliability.

VQ30DETT, not VQ35DE

It's a 3-liter engine, not like our 3.5.
