Have to read the written report to see what all transpired during qualifying - no commentary on IMSA live timing. The qualifying for the ALMS races is a 20 minute session - no Q1, Q2 or Q3 driving around the track to burn off fuel. In the 20 minute session you aren't wearing out the equipment nearly as much as the other way. Hope it's a good race tomorrow. Carol
The Audi's are 65 kg heavier than the front row Dyson Lolas following a revision to the ALMS regs this week. The weight adjustment and weather conditions in Portland are making it interesting for them. Carol
Liz breaks the record of female wins in ALMS but surpassing the number of wins by Milka Duno. Intersport leads Porsche by 5 points. Next race is live on Speed from Elkhart Lake. The championship for LMP2 and GT2 is going to go down to the last race the way things are going! Allan and Dindo won again!!! Carol
