Short mention of the race with very brief summary during the ALMS showing on ESPN3 today.

Its a shame this series doesnt get any TV coverage. Always has 30 cars or so, close racing throughout the field, some of the best racing out there right now in my opinion, along with the CTSSC, minus the shenanigans of late.

no pros, no factory money, and its german only. typical average american longs to see a camaro or mustang or a car powered by their engines, versus a german race car. just the way it is.

its a phenomenal series, amazing cars, and great tight action. but if it was a significant draw of viewership, she'd be on TV. cant really think of any spec series that has a good TV package if at all.

heck, i think i used to see supercup europe on tv, with all the euro superstar cup drivers. i think its relegated to speed2 or so. suprised that gt3 challenge isnt atlast on the net with streaming and replays. that might help .

Zero interest. Guess that makes me atypical.

Peter: Congrats on your 3rd & 4th. Gold class looking pretty competitive this year.

Thanks. Yeah, VERY competitive. 6 people within .22 in qualifying... Was second in first race until last 3 laps (Scott Tucker made a GREAT pass on the outside in turn 8) and 3rd in second race until last 2 laps (lost brakes...). Cool weekend though as the Canada Cup race was running the same weekend. I actually did the two races in that series too (DNF and a 3rd). 4 races in two days at Mosport will wear on you... Overall, just really, really good racing though!
