Interesting that a Lotus Elise GT1 is posted as one of the entries...didn't think they were up to par and competing anymore.

You wouldn't happen to be the same The359 over at granturismox.net would you?

I would love to see the race, but unfortunately I don't get Speed Channel. Hopefully it'll be on Radio LeMans so I can at least listen to it. UNless someone caps it. Hint hint :lol:

There are some notable things on the list. One in particular is the Lotus Elise GT1, I didn't know it was even running! You wouldn't happen to know if they plan on running any other races would you? I hope it's not just running at Sebring.

The #92 TVR 400R is being run by an all woman team. One of the drivers, Amanda Stretton, used to do the telecast for Speed Channel and also was an announcer on Radio LeMans. Another team I hope races all season and not just Sebring.

I wish luck to Ron Fellows in the #3 Vette. He just had shoulder surgery not too long ago and has been doing indoor carting as rehab. Can't wait to see how he does.

Surprise surprise, Vici Racing and their Murcielago isn't on the list and whatever happened with Carsports Zonda?

If someone were to enter, they'd run a Pontiac GTO instead. There is already a Pontiac GTO being entered into Speed World Challenge for this year.

There are 4 Maranellos in GTS class, two 550-GTSs and two 575GTCs.

And the Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT is currently being tested by Reiter Engineering for FIA GT.

What about Vici Racing? Or are they part of Reiter? Their site does nothing more than show that they have one, but there isn't any dates for races they will be attending.

Ohh no. Prodrive does not want to race in US anymore????

I dont think those GTS ferrari are developed enough to be honest.

Care Racing = Prodrive. They merely dropped the Veloqx sponsership and brought in Care.

Veloqx instead moved to Audi UK.

Do you not know the answers to my questions or are you just ignoring me? LOL

My guess is Vici merely isn't ready. Or they merely aren't on the list yet.

Slight change in the list, Care Racing (ProDrive) has dropped out of Sebring, saying they wish to concentrate more on the LMES and LeMans.

But there is one addition, Larbre Competition who runs Vipers in FIAGT has bought a Panoz Esperante GTR-1 and has entered it into LMP1 class.

It has nothing in common with the Monaro 427s that rain the Bathhurst 24 Hours, those were one-off cars. This SWC GTO is based on the standard GTO/Monaro.

Just read that elsewhere, I seriously hope they come up with the funds to run in the other races. :cry:
