well if you are stateside it should be playing on CBS sports on TV!

Yeah, a week later and edited down to one hour, at most! I'll be watching online from the ALMS feed...can't wait a week to watch the Corvettes get dusted by the RSRs again. Looking forward to the show coming to Road America this August.

that stinks! owell i guess. its too bad it doesnt get as much support as nascar!

i plan to do the porsche parade lap too!

ALMS is actually gaining market share and the series has never been stronger. Granted it does not get NASCAR coverage but it is doing very well.

Lobo1186 · 05-21-2010, 12:24 PM

well i stand corrected! didnt know that it was getting more popular. I sure enjoy it of course!

but nascar... that stuff is just beyond me. only left turns and cars that dont remotely resemble their names sake except for having 4 wheels seats and a steering wheel.

I will be there... but as a guest of the Bell Micro racing team in their suite rather than the Corral.

I will also be bringing my Cayenne rather than the Boxster since I am taking some other people.

Still should be a fun event, as long as the weather plays nice!

More like we'll be watching the Corvettes and the RSRs getting dusted by the BMWs and freakin' Risi Ferrari. I hate that team.

well... unfortunately the 45 car didnt do too well in practice but it had started wrong. hopefully they can figure out whatever the problem is. HOWEVER, risi and flying lizard are tied for first in the as it stands so it should be a good race!

landrovered · 05-22-2010, 08:47 PM

Wow, just wow...that was one of the best races I have ever had the pleasure to watch. Truly epic racing, I cannot wait to see the 90 minute story next Sunday on CBS it is being produced by the folks that did Truth in 24, I bet it will be as good as the race.

Lobo1186 · 05-22-2010, 09:46 PM

I agree it was one of the best races I have been too go to never mind watch plus being able to do the parade lap... VERY AWESOME... wow idk if ill be able to sleep after all the excitement.
