According to the Speed online schedule,

Grand Am wrap up at 2pm today.
Then 3-4:30pm Porsche Cup racing before going to Rolex 24.

Speed/Fox split screen.

Worst ad so far: "I'm JC France and I'm a Grand Am driver..." after showing a nascar style punchout.

Should have said, "I'm JC France and my Daddy made a race series so I could drive somewhere..."

The FOX coverage is awful...3-4 minutes of racing then 5 minutes of commercials. I'm not sure I've ever seen worse. I appreciate the need for commercials but this is ridiculous.

It looks like the 09 Rolex Cup car uses the same body as the Cup S. Anyone know about this?
