Hindy has mentioned this on Radio Le Mans for a while now. The new 991 needs more development before being handed off to the privateers.

It did sound however that Falken's participation next year could hinge on them getting this new car. On the plus side.... A works Manthey Porsche squad looks like it could still be on the cards. (probably a lot of reading between the lines from me there, so take it with a pinch of salt) |

That is what I was thinking as well. The current (ALMS) car isn't all that competitive, and having it hang around for an additional year won't help that. Especially with Corvette bringing in a new car and the z4 and vipers with an additional year of development.

Maybe one of the Porsche teams will switch. ;-)

Baltimore race is supposedly going to be held at a different location in the city. Perhaps the city officials don't want to repave the inner harbor??

I honestly can't think of anywhere inside of Baltimore where there is room to fit that kind of event. And the roads (mostly) just get worse...

About the only other possibility would be the seaport near Broening Hwy I'd prefer to ditch that to have the Cleveland Airport circuit back. |

Posts on relative costs of DP and LMP2 moved to the USCR thread.
This is about specific entries and schedule. For people interested in talking about the series not fighting about it. Discussing relative merits of different aspects of the series is fine, but spreading, like a cancer, into all other threads on the subject is not on. Think of others, if you can. |

John Dagys reports that a number of European P2 teams, including OAK and Greaves are seriously considering competing in the USCR at Daytona and/or Sebring. Critical will be the exact regulations for DPs:

Look what happens when at least one class has solid rules! |

Dalla Lana remains committed to the USCR GT Daytona class (despite some rules uncertainties) as well as the 2014 USCR NAEC schedule, despite the fact that it has not been released yet. Andy Flinn |

What point are you making exactly? David quoted an article saying Dalla Lana will race a GTE car in the endurance rounds and you say the same thing? Yes he continues to run in gtd, but expands to GTE because he knows the rules.

My point? If drivers, owners and stakeholders like Dalla Lana clearly have faith in USCR, why can't we? Andy Flinn |

On topic please. It all to easy to take it to the usual pointed remarks about the series. I know there is overlap, but it was hoped people would try for the sake of others who are interested in just collating information about the entries and schedule. There is already a place to discuss the other stuff. It is only a couple of clicks away to be considerate to other users.
