Fiorentina 1 should be qualifying in the top 5 on the gridFiorentina 1 should be qualifying in the top 5 on the grid
I ran that series in 1996, 1997 and 1998. At the time there were 4 series (Florida, West Coast, Mid-West, and East Coast) each with 40 to 80 entries a weekend (3 to 5 groups of 12 to 16 cars each race). I'm sad that see that there is only 1 series and that they don't have any where close to the number of entries.

I was racing at Laguna Seca once a month at one point and there was never less then 65 drivers paying $2,400 for 3-days race weekend. When they started charging $4,000 people went else where.

1/2 the guys who won races in Grand-Am over the years started in the 2-liter series. Also, a lot of Indy Car drivers, like RHR.
