Given the human processing of paperwork and web sites I wouldn't say it's that odd. Now if we want to be terribly optimistic, their Ferrari DP engine just appeared on the approved list, so maybe...

AIM did issue a press release earlier this month (for what press releases are worth) that they are planning to run the series starting with Homestead.

He was racing some in a Subaru in Koni Challenge in the past couple of years. Last year he was briefly attached to the Beyer DP as a driver/coach, but didn't race in it.

Still no love for Davy Jones?

Long Beach is the last race in the ALMS for the GT1 Corvettes. The reported plan is for the GT2 P&M Corvettes to appear at Mid-Ohio.

Ah, the ALMS is adding the Porsche GT3 Cup cars from the IMSA Patrón GT3 Challenge series to the races starting with Miller:

The most simple explanation is that it was a rumor he did actually hear while covering the ICS Barber test, and that could be exactly how he reported it. I don't recall his exact wording in his...

Ouch. Robin Miller said on the Speed Report that the rumor is Honda is going to halt the Acura P1 program.

Different series have different rules. Take blocking, for example. If most series were to penalize blocking, that doesn't make it wrong for a series in which blocking is legal for blocking to not...

1. It's going to be a matter of opinion exactly what the penalty for a weight infraction should be. There's no natural or divine law specifiy in sporting competitions what the penalties for...

Why can no one spell Donohue? :)

A bit cruel for SPEED to replay the 59 breaking while in the lead last year and the 58 running out of gas at Montreal. Some of us were well aware that Brumos has...

Brumos last won in DP back in 2003.

From another site: "The Honda engine is a production based 24 valve, DOHC V6, displacing 3.9 liters." At 3.9L under the current rules it isn't limited in compression ratio or air intake, although it...

There have been rumors of NASCAR buying Grand-Am for a year or more, so I wouldn't think that the motorcycles business would be the main reason as that's a recent development.

The teams so far seem happy about the change.

From a more official press release:

Elsewhere it was also said that Grand-Am would not be changing management.

DC also has an article on this site with more details.

I'll add that many of the regular pro drivers in sportscars have backgrounds in openwheel road-racing formula as well, from ladder and national series to F1.

When Castroneves, Briscoe, and Kurt Busch drove for Penske in this year's Rolex 24, Busch said it was funny listening to them saying the Daytona Prototype was heavy and that they should drive his...

If you look through: http://www.motorsport.com/photos/select.asp?S=GRANDAM&Y=2008&D=Marc_Goossens there may be some photos which will give it away.

Ah, here's a fairly decent one:...

The series' website is http://grand-am.com/ and if you get the SPEED channel they're having a race up in Montreal today, airing tonight at 8pm ET.

The motorsport.com photo gallery for this past...

The prize money goes to the teams, not the drivers, although the drivers' contracts can certainly include a cut of the prize money.

As far as the amount of prize money actually awarded for the...

The track in New Jersey is near Millville. The PR I found didn't have a URL for the site, but IIRC it does have a kart track.

IIRC, highlight shows have been airing weeks after the event and at something like 5am. I don't remember the details, but at least you know it exists.

Slight correction: it's now a Cayenne Fabcar. ;)
