    It speaks volumes about a racing series when the only car anyone is talking about
    was driven up by it's owner and sat on display in the paddock while the racing
    was going on.

    For Mr. Edmundson's quotes "We don't care about 'traditional sports car fans'" and
    "We want to make the cars irrelevant". They succeeded.

    So long GrandAM.

    So, P4/5 is street legal?

    Hope you're right about the merge. Not sure about the prototypes but it sure should
    spice things up in the GT ranks.

    I may even make the trip to Daytonner next year.

    Both Ferrari P 4/5 by Pininfarina and P 4/5 C are. They both are fully emissions compliant and have all required DOT Equipment.

    HERE HERE.....sad how Nascar views sports car racing huh? LMP1's are gone and LMP2 and DP will compete against each other...Looks like the GT field will be the class to watch....Now just get rid of those trashy tube framed Camaro's and Corvettes. If GM and the other US manufacturers cannot build a car to compete utilizing it's uni-body then go back to Nascar

    that's my big concern about USCR, or TUSCC, or whatever it's called now....

    NASCAR, and Grand-AM, have been so pro-Chevrolet for so long I wonder how fair of a shake everyone else will really get; and I doubt other manufacturers will tolerate that for long.
