I've been to the Road America race a few times now, I don't plan on missing any from now on! LOL
Dyson should be able to more than simply challenge the Audi's, they should be able to beat them. The Dyson is a faster car, it outqualifies the Audi regularly. The big difference were the tires.
A team cannot change tires while re-fueling. So Dyson would have to refuel and then change the tires. Which ate up valueable time. Whereas the Audi's didn't need to change their tires at all! Simply refuel and go!
The Audi's are also running smaller intake restrictors this year, which should also give Dyson a better chance. I hope to see the Audi's dethroned, especially since it's their last year! LOL
The Audi's have one hell of a record, 52 podium finishes out of 62 races I believe it is. But, it's hardly surprising seeing how little competition they've had outside of LeMans.
BTW, I'm almost done with the entry list. I'm making it simple by doing a seperate entry list for Sebring from full season entries. It's a pain in the ass with all the rumors flying about.
One of the best rumors so far, is extending the race at Road America!
Basically, the big races are at the beginning or the end, with filler in the middle. By changing the RA race midseason, people will pay more attention. What I read, was extending it to a 6 hour race running into the night. Which should get it far more attention. I wouldn't count on it happening in 2005 though. 2006 at the earliest. All I can say is, good! Since it's the race I got to, I'd love for it to run into the night!
