american lemans
maybe the wrong place to post a thread but maybe someone can point me in the right direction.
Does anyone know the best way of looking for a drive in the American Le Mans Series?
Teams?
Forums?
ETC ETC

cheers

If you believe you have sufficient funds to bring to a program, for them to take you on as a paying driver, then it would be the teams who do such things you would want to contact. Send me a PM, with details such as the budget you have, your track record etc, and I can put you in touch with some potentials for you.

If you have no budget, you'll need to get one.

You wont find a GT drive any time soon in the ALMS, even established Pro's are struggling to find a drive in the ALMS.

There are rides in GTC and possibly LMP-C.

Read the "ALMS 2010 Discussion" thread and you will get a general idea what's going on... also you will get a good summary of all the teams potentially looking for (pay) drivers particularly with regard to LMP-C and GTC.
And on the websites of the teams you will easily find the phone numbers and contact persons to make a call...

Probably more of a chance of finding a drive in one of the Grand-Am series. If you go to http://community.grand-am.com/ there are usually teams advertising seats available in the forums.

We talked about that offline, as well as where appropriate places would be given the budget. The ALMS seems out of the question for now, probably Koni being the best place. Good Luck.

Koni, or Continental as it is now, was what I was thinking about too. A good series to learn about American racing while not being too much different from what there is in the UK. I know John Vincent from V-Pack Racing is looking for drivers for his BMW 330, his contact email is info@v-pack.com.
