The race from Montreal is about to go green. Small entry list but hopefully a good race.

After lap 1, Gainsco car is dominating DP, and GT is simple...Top 4 are Camaros/Corvettes, followed by 7 Mazdas and a Porsche bringing up the rear.

Spun in his own oil apparently. That was a hard hit.

Great battle in GT, The two Camaros are battling hard, even though the 97 just cut the final chicane, the #07 Corvette is quickly gaining too.

There are rumours that MotorsTV will show GrandAm in 2011. Most of the races would be shown on monday as-live, including live coverage of the Rolex 24

Even with 10 damn cars the GT battle was still epic.

The 2010 season finale starts in just under 1 hour. Memo Rojas and Scott Pruett are on DP pole, and the Whelen Corvette is on GT pole. Dyson Racing makes their return to the Grand-Am Series in the #16 Lola DP.

So they're not going on their gap year huh? :p

Would be great if it came with access to some of Grand-Am's supporting series...

Team orders ruined what coulda been an epic finish in GT. The 97 Camaro was clearly faster than the 57 Camaro, but just spent the whole time blocking the #68 Speedsource Mazda, not being allowed to pass his teammate.


Pruett and Rojas dominated again.

Interesting, that car conforms to the GTC rules as well (particularly noticing the red painted endplates and splitter!)

Tony Dowe will be bringing a Ferrari 430 to the Rolex 24 at Daytona with drivers Dominik Farnbacher, Rob Bell, and Allan Simonsen.

Im really liking the fact that it looks like we may have a big grid again in Daytona. Atleast in GT. Judging by the next test session entry list, it looks like Flying Lizard will be running Daytona in a #45 Porsche Riley Prototype.

The Flying Lizard car will be the Ex-Brumos car with the flat-6 motor, while Action Express expands to 2 cars with the Porsche V8 and Brumos steps back to run GT Porsches again.
