    Tacky Corvette rules the road racing world (with 120 extra lbs. and smaller intake resrictor)!

    Without "hicks" like multi-millionaire DR. Panoz, modern road racing wouldn't exist! He is the founder of the ALMS/ELMS series and cars from his race series have been winning LeMans since the ALMS' conception. I am very proud of the American wins at Sebring. Congrats to all the great competitors. Best race in years.

    Re: Sebring Results

    I was a little upset too seeing no Porsches take a class win, but the race was fantastic nonetheless.

    I was happy for the Corvette team. Even with more restriction and weight, they still managed to take the GT1 victory, and the battle at the very end between Papis and Enge was some of the most exciting racing I've seen in a long time.
