Top 10 after first test session:
1 - Joest Audi #1 2 - Champion Audi #38 3 - Dyson MG #16 4 - Dyson MG #20 5 - Panoz #10 6 - Dallara #27 7 - Panoz #11 8 - Lola/Judd #30 9 - R&S #12 10 - Pilbeam #56 GTS - Corvette #3 GT - Porsche #24 A few notes...Dyson's MGs are about 7 seconds faster than their closest 675 competitor, Bucknum's Pilbeam (not Intersport MG!). The top four positions are within one second of eachother. Slowest car so far is the Downing Welter. |

Qualifying for the ALMS race has just been cancelled, due to wet weather, what IMSA are going to do is that all the practice times from todays sessions are going to count towards the grid. The qualifying session which is meant to start in 10 mins or so will be a practice session, hope you guys understand that......

Grid to be determined by fastest times in all practise times from today. That's all there is that you need to know.

I understand that the Chevy is an "older" car,and is not built to the latest spec. I reckon the Le Mans cars might still be on there way back for France

From the timing screens and the Radio Web I would say not, but remember the Ferrari's didn't run in the final session

After looking at some pics I noticed that in some the Hypersport logo appears in the background. With the exception of racing the Panoz Gt what else do these guys do?
