Having him even making it to turn one is setting high expectations .That'd be the largest turn 1 wreck since the 2012 Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix.
Does the tri-oval count as turn one? Course could he even figure out how to start it?Having him even making it to turn one is setting high expectations .
Wonderful, more beautiful cars for that dusty oil businessman to ruin.

#30 interesting. Frikadelli from VLN and a Porsche with Sabine Schmitz at the wheel...
Pruett with Action Express instead of Ganassi,
Maybe its better for everybody that they are in the same car.Mucke on the entry list for Ford who would have guessed that.....
Pruett is racing in P so he can potentially break the tie between him and Hurley Haywood with 5 overall victories a piece. AXR signed him because he's still one of the fastest guys out there
Ganassi is going for the repeat and it's a lot easier to repeat with 2 cars. I wouldn't be surprised (if Karam gets funding) that Ganassi will be able to race a DP at Sebring and maybe beyond. Ganassi talked about how it wanted to run a DP this season way back October-November in an article. I don't feel like chasing links, but I read it on either racer or S365.
As per the car count numbers released recently, I'm disappointed that only 54 or so will be at Daytona. There were usually that many back when it was just DP and GT during the Grand Am days. Car per class numbers way higher than what we have now. Still want to get rid of at least 1 class (PC). Those teams would be in the GTD class and then P could be slowed down a bit helping the budgets out for more competitors in that class too
IMSA P is already faster than LMP2 (assuming same tires) IMSA LMP2 chassis run at higher power levels. That's why the Nissan didn't work because it wasn't turbo and couldn't make the power levels necessary to be completely competitive.I say scrap PC as well. GTLM is getting faster with new ACO cars and P class is going to get stronger next year. New gen P2 cars are getting a substantial power hike as well.
WEC GTE is down right now. IMSA leads the world in that class currently.
There's also an am category with rich old guys making up half the field in the WEC. Imagine if IMSA had GTEam instead of GTDConnor you're drunk, Happy New Year

5x AMR Vantages

IMSA 15:

You've also left out the Ganassi Ford GT entries as well as the BMWs for this upcoming year...

Add BMW to IMSA too. The Z4 last season and the new M6 this season. Got an extra Ferrari in IMSA for the endurance roundsFor WEC in 16 we take away 2 Vantages, 2 Manthey cars in PRO (as PRO have a new spec now). For IMSA we lose Falken (Sadly, great looking car)
EDIT Add 2 Ford GT's to BOTH series though.
Quality over Quantity. IMSAs GT has pulled some fantastic racing, more so than WEC GTs IMO.Connor you're drunk, Happy New Year

Quality and quantity in terms of GT racing belong to IMSA right now. GTLM has better racing than GTE, and GTD has double digit confirmed full season entries already with tons of diversityQuality over Quantity. IMSAs GT has pulled some fantastic racing, more so than WEC GTs IMO
