of Thanks & Good Bye ALMS
Thank you thank you thank you. ALMS came along exactly when I needed a new racing series to believe in. I have been to several ALMS races at Road America & Mid-Ohio. The "For The fans" open paddocks and starting grids at Road America are worth the price of admission. The combined ALMS/Grand-Am weekend at Road America was spectacular this year. If the USCC (Is it USCC or USCR?) continues to play nice with the ACO & the FIA's World Championship, driving the technology forward, this is going to be a great series. We are so close to a single inclusive set of rules. This is great.
Suggestions:
1 - continue to keep the big sanctioning bodies talking and playing nice.
2 - @USCC The entire schedule needs to increase the length of the races. The 2:45 format on some of these tracks is not worthy of endurance sports cars. Follow the lead of the World Endurance Championship with 6 hour minimum races.
3 - @USCC re-instate the eligibility of the LMP1 class for your crown jewels. Nothing wrong with inviting the P1 teams from across the pond, even if they win.
4 - @theFans can we stop the sniping at each other? This is a truly merged series now. ALMS & Grand-Am found a way to keep most of the classes and stay in the good graces of the ACO. Why are we fighting about 2 series that no longer exist?
