    This weekend at St Petersburg...

    Any thoughts on how our boys will do after what happened at Sebring?

    I hope better!!!!! Maybe they learned something. But, I'm sure Acura also learned, so it should be a good race. GT2 should also be excellent with the new rivalry.

    I'm scheduled to attend. I was at Sebring and have to admit the Acura's were very impressive. Anyone who thinks that Acura was lucky, well they didn't see the race first hand. Porsche simply lost to a better prepared car & team that day, no luck involved. GT2 was as close as it gets too.
    Should be an interesting race along with the Final Four.

    Hope they do good, but most of all hope for a tight battle.

    Is there a good website or bulletin board for following ALMS news and chat? I have checked out the ALMS website, but am still looking for more info and chat.

    Was there. Good race but with a number of wrecks. Perfect setting for a race and very well done by St Pete.

    It was a horrific start for the Penske RS Spyders after qualifing 1-2, they fell way back due to contact at the start (Audi got a black flag), later blown rear (due to contact), and debre in cooling inlets causing overheating, but they came back to finish 1-2 in P2 , 3-4 overall. The Acuras did well and finished just behind the Spyders and led overall early on. In GT2 Ferraris were the winner again and were running 1, 2 until a bad crash by the lead car. One GT3 that I think was Henzler_Liddel was as quick or slightly quicker than the Ferrari but fell to a really bad pit stop (Fueling problem) which cost many laps.

    So in GT2 it's 2 for Ferrari and 0 for Porsche!!
