haven't heard of it
That would fit under GT Racing?
many people don't care about that series
Lots of series catered for in the "GT and sports" forum. Not all that many threads in there. Personally I love watching GrandAm (on Five US tomorrow at seven, UK viewers, because the incredibly tall men have stopped throwing balls into incredibly high nets with holes in the bottom) but the same goes for the other sports car classes. And there seems to be just enough support here for a general sports racing forum, let alone dividing it into GrandAm, ALMS, FIA GTs and so forth.
I suggest you check it out... Its some great racing...Quote:

Really... :confused: Except on some of the street courses where Audi and Porsche can go head to head, they usually have more exciting racings then ALMS...Quote:

In the DP Class, there are 6 different chassis manufactures to choose from and 5 different engine manufactures to choose from... And the GT Class is even more diversified with 7 different vehicle manufactures present covering front-engine, rear-engine, V-6, V-8, etc... With a possibility of so many different car combinations out on the course, I would have a hard time calling it a "spec series"...Quote:

I'm not saying this is a bad thing, but you will never see a team like Penske or Chip Ganassi win at LeMans, which is why they don’t bother going...Quote:

well the dp's arn't the prettiest, they certainly arn't the fastest, but it is great racing. Hope to see everyone at midohio this weekend.
