    It's too bad for the 45 lizard car and Falken car. The vettes have had some awful luck as well. It does look like the Cytosport RS Spyder is going to take the win in LMP2.


    Re: ALMS 2010

    I wonder if the Flying Lizards car would have won in the absence of this accident and delay

    Anyway, it's good to see the redundant RS Spyder getting another class win. A consolation, I guess

    For the vettes I'd call that imcompetence rather than bad luck!...  The pit crew had been doing so well over all these years, wondering what happened there...   And I was looking forward to this year, with their first full year in GT with all the other boys...  Oh well, next race maybe Smiley

    Re: ALMS 2010

    It definitely is too bad for the 45 lizard car...One does have to question race control keeping the pits closed for the length of time that they did. I think the 45 car lost 3 laps just on that alone.

    I was trying to be nice about the botched stops.   Smiley  

    They have been been close to perfect in almost everything they do. Doug didn't look very happy. It was a real shame, but the vette juggernaut will return.

    I could be wrong given that I was very tired but I believe the 45 lizard car was down 2 laps at the end and that their having to wait in the pits costs them 3 and a half laps. The drivers of the 45 car really had to wrestle it around to match the pace of the others.   Smiley

    I was very happy for the Cytosport team and the RS Spyder. You have to admit that the LMP2 field was rather weak. The Dyson car, as always ran into mechanical problems and had it not been for the electrical problem with the Acura (if you can really say it's an Acura) I think we would have seen a different outcome.


    Re: ALMS 2010

     The fastest race times for the 45 was about the same as Risi (just slightly slower). I'm not sure that they can keep up the pace for the same period of time (the average lap time per stint is really what we need to examine).Before all the drama, they were already about 40 seconds back. This is far too much. I am ot at all hopeful for this season.

    As for the BMW; this is just silly! They are purpose built race cars that have absolutely nothing to do with the street going versions. (gear box and diff in rear, Engine pulled back, exhausts out the side, etc)


    Re: ALMS 2010

    The RS Spyder that won LMP2.

    Limited competition but it went into the history books as another Sebring win for Porsche

    Re: ALMS 2010

     Actually the competition (for the win) was very strong. The HPD ARX-01c was faster (much) 

    ...but your point is well taken. The P2 class has been spoiled. it has been reduced to it's former insignificant state (pre-Porsche era)
