The #9 car has hit quite a few cars so far

Pruett spun Taylor and got penalized. He's a dick.

The car itself hasn't been announced yet. Wouldn't mind seeing another Camaro out there given the Earnhardt/GM connection of old.

Not bad. Looks a bit more sleek and agile than the current DPs.

I like it.

So far.

Sidepods are still waaaaay too high to consider it sleek and/or sexy. Coyote's current car is definitely alright, that car isn't so much.

Looks good!

Just read this on Audi's facebook

Quote:

Good news for American Audi fans: Audi Sport customer racing is currently developing a Grand-Am version of the Audi R8 LMS for 2012. The car will debut at the 2012 Daytona 24 Hours!

Fun race at Mid Ohio - pit crew members doing lemming impressions and the quote of the year televised live - "GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKER."

Really want to see this, but Speed Channel is out for me for some reason.

Thrilling finish to the season right there, awesome race.

Grand Am has probably entertained me more than ALMS this season and that's really saying something. Went to both the Glen races during the year and the teams and drivers do a lot to make the fans feel welcome. When you add the awesome Continental Tire Series to the mix, it was probably my favourite package all year.

If this new DP bodystyle gets a few more cars out along with all the new GT cars (Ferrari, Audi, Ware Mustangs etc) it's going to be good in 2012.

No VIR OR Lime Rock? Come on, Grand Am. That's pretty lame.

I question VIR a bit but I'm not sure how much is Grand-Am's fault there... It's a great track and a great venue though.

As for Lime Rock there's a lot of strange things going on up there, lots of date changes and games of chicken happening. Reminder though that NASCAR has their Busch North and Modified date up there in September already... I'm sure they could squeeze Grand-Am in there somehow.

The NASCAR weekend at Lime Rock is just Modifieds now, so there's definitely room in the schedule.
