wow, perfect calendar, am I right in guessing that the road atlanta race is with the ALMS? Or is it a standalone event?

Great calendar, I hope even though the series isn't attached at the hip to a larger series that teams find it worthwhile to continue participating. Four Canadian races, two of which I get to go to, and two in Quebec, including Mont Tremblant on the Canada Day weekend.

Glad to see Wirth back racing this year...came third a couple of years back and was left without anything last year...interesting to see how he gets on...
On that note found this from him...http://www.racingrealities.com/RacingRealities.html but they seemed to have pulled through ok for this year...hopefully they can build the momentum this year without a father series... |

I was at Long Beach and she drove one helluva race. Didn't make even the slightest mistake from my vantage point. It was halarious watching her on the podium, she is so tiny that her driver's suit made her look like she was wearing football shoulderpads

Is it just me or is this grid getting smaller???
 Shame it still seems to be a good grid but I don't envy those at the FA offices trying to make this work |

I wouldn't expect the grid to get much smaller this year. There are some drivers who probably figured it wasn't worth it to finish the season as they wouldn't finish well in the championship. I'd imagine a few more might dip their toes into Indy Lights. Here's hoping the IMSA sanction next year encourages some Star Mazda teams to step up.
