Agreed, the deal with the ACO is purely for use of the Le Mans name. And the promos that said "born in Le Mans in 1923..." don't seem to interest people. What can you do for me now? How good is the show?
I will disagree slightly with you Fog... IMSA of the late-70s was laden with gentleman drivers and made for very exciting racing. I do however agree that the ALMS is risking a lot "staying the course" with its current brand and rules set. I am with you on the frustration over what has happened to our beloved series though, man. It was the best in the world for a bright, shining moment.
