Well Libra is on the entry list. Also Diaz and Gonzales in the PR1/Mathiasen LMPC, the pair were not gone long with their exit at AJR in GTC. 34 on the list at the moment. Piece

Boy, the World Challenge/Trans-Am races at the Indy Toronto this year were called "Acura Sports Car Challenge" but Acura refuses to put their name on the ALMS race at Mid-O? They pulled out corporate backing from the ALMS and they damn-well meant it!

I hadn't. So it wins in terms of awareness. However in terms of sales, I suspect that sales of all tequila are up, rather than specifically the Patron brand. So their share of the market probably hasn't changed. much. |

I knew what Patron was WELL before they became a sponsor and I don't assume everybody knows this. I was half joking and half being serious. |

And really, why should we care? We should be thankful anyone is willing to put that much activation into their sponsorship with the ALMS right now. |

I know this won't be a Lime Rock, but the tight confines of Mid-Ohio should produce some good action and another tight, hard fought GT race. |

Also to dispell any confusion, for those who listened to MWM. There will be a live "Q"ing stream, brought to you by Porsche, at http://www.americanlemans.com/primary1.php?cat=live
which is the same portal/URL as the Todocast race stream, BUT it is a seperate stream!! L.P. |

Mid-Ohio is always good because its just technical enough to challenge drivers to drive the perfect lap and has three solid passing zones. I haven't seen a bad race at Mid Ohio weather it was IROC, Trans Am, CART or ALMS.

Yeah looks like pole will be in the mid to low 1:21's. Corvette has data from their debut last year here. I knew they would be quick. Same with BMW, it looks like the Top 6-8 cars will be in the 1:21's. If the #61 can find the balance, that might make 9 cars all within half a second or so.

At Walmart while running errands, I saw a guy in a Flying Lizards polo shirt. I though, "Well, he's a diehard ALMS fan." Then I remembered, "oh, the ALMS race is this weekend."
Random, but the guy must've been a team member, since he was loading up a cart with numerous one gallon water jugs. |

I would think that is Diaz that just moved to the front of P-C.
