Tom.
Travel issues apparently. Maybe it's immigration problems just like Simona de Silvestro before Sonoma in IndyCar.

It would be good for them to win after the news week they have had, although its hard not to cheer for OAK Pescarolo/United Autosports and Id love to see Signatec get a victory at Petit.

Im just shocked there is actually a good LMP2 battle in North America this year, all be it one race.

The gap over the top 4 is less than .5 of a second, but then it's a second and a half back to the Oreca Pug. Shows us how much work that Audi and Peugeot have done to their cars that Oreca can't really do, and might not be able to do even without the ACO's grandfather clause (Peugeot focusing on their new car).

Definitely unlike Sebring, where Oreca was roughly on the pace, Oreca will need a massive Audi/Pug factory meltdown, but so far, they've kept it clean, with only one factory 908 having an off and on during the session. That's not to say that will stay true for the race, as we've seen this season so far--it was only Imola that Audi and Peugeot got their cars home with no major issues from start to finish.

I bet Johnny Mowlem would get more out of this event by sitting on the Eurosport booth, rather than driving one of those moving chicanes.

Correction for Car 60; it's GOETHE not GIETHE.
Correction for Car 63; It's Christian RIED not REID.
Also Cars 34 and 37 have withdrawn.
Great job by the way Andy!

I got to looking at my collection of parking passes on my windshield and I noticed:
2010 Sebring
4 day ticket and parking at gate: $90

2011 Petit
advanced 4 day ticket and parking: 130

Same show, same track owner, one year apart. Albeit a show I wouldn't miss for anything. I think Sebring is fair.

Another entry list update tonight, so back on the computer.... Driver additions at MuscleMilk with Greg Pickett, Genoa expanding to 4 cars, updates at Risi, Lotus and Jaguar

Also corrected the spelling mistakes. As the guide is Official (!) and takes the data from the entry lists, the two withdrawn cars remain.

btw - Goethe will not be racing this weekend, but remains on the entry list


Download, what is hopefully the final version at www.spotterguides.com

(note you might have to refresh your browser to get the latest update)

Road ATL is a much better spectator venue IMO and half the people that go to Sebring aren't there for the race; increase the price too much, and some folk may find something else to do for Spring Break. And like me, you'll save cash on gas heading to Braselton.

The carnage continues; we may do the "natural reduction" to 53.

Wouldn't surprise me, the entry list is already down quite a bit from the initial version. But that's usually the case here

There is usually a rash at the beginning (or jumbled up in the first half), but I think it'll clear out after some attrition.
