The grid is starting to pick up:
http://www.americanlemans.com/images...oEntry.pdf.pdf

The Corvettes are back, VICI is slated to have a second car (not holding my breath on this one), and the Team Cytosport RS Spyder entry is official.

What happened to the Kumho 911? Judging by their agreement with VICI, I'm guessing that their chassis has been acquired by VICI, and will be their second car? (I know, I know...)

Rumors still persist as to if/when Jaguar will enter the fray: http://www.rocketsportsracing.com/in...=56&Itemid=228

GT will certainly not lack for excitement the rest of this season.

What happened to the second Farnbacher-Loles car? No entry noted. Is King Leh sitting this one out? Would sure hate to see that.

SeaCay

This is ALMS, are you referring to Grand Am? Farnbacher has not had a second entry in any of the ALMS races this season.

Toby Pennycuff

Oops, sorry. My bad.

Thankfully, the field @ LRP last weekend was a little thin. Good action but not one GT-1 car, no Corvettes in GT-2. Panoz was rockin', both BMWs were smoking hard towards the end, and at least Risi got spanked

Good thing I wasn't holding my breath... : http://www.americanlemans.com/images...oEntry.pdf.pdf

What is wrong with these guys?

The Pug's will be back at Petit Le Mans. Perhaps Audi will join them?

SeaCay

Updating the thread, cars will be on track tomorrow, pics to follow (if there is any interest).

VICI is now completely out of the lineup...

Judging by another thread in here, I guess there's a couple of Corvettes entered too? Wonder what their torque numbers will be? (Seems the only way a racing thread gains any interest around here is to broach THAT subject).

Is there live streaming of qualifying today? If so, link? I can't seem to find anything on americanlemans.com or speedtv.com.

Yeah, thanks for sharing!

Is the new Spyder team getting enough help from Porsche engineering?

Vici doesn't their car entered?
Johannes is a great guy if he's there be sure to say hi....

Thanks again for sharing!

SeaCay

Look at the paddock pics of the Spyder, those are Porsche engineers looking at the laptop.

VICI isn't here at all. Don't get me started...
