Too much division to come to an end - I'm glad to see it before one went under. I wondered what was happening when I read that the Circuit of the Americas was negotiating for the US FIA Race that typically has been held at Sebring (& Petit). The fact that a P1 Car wasn't even in the picture at the end of todays race in Baltimore tells the story that small fields & competition in Sports Cars had deluted the landscape T.C. |

What I would like to see;
A True Prototype Class ( Doubtful though as the FIA will kill it) Daytona Prototypes ( Up the Power) The GT Class as it exists in ALMS A GTC Class ( The Grand-Am Class plus the ALMS GTCs) The Alternative Fuel Class that Grand-Am is bringing in. The downsides are that this Merger is not supposed to happen til 2014. That is when the New FIA LeMans Rules go into effect. And that means Racing could really Suck in 2013 - who is going to Invest $$ when it could change a year later? |
