I figure its about time to start this considering all the news that is coming out.

So you at least get SOME replies to this thread… Good to see the old Dyson livery back where it belongs, and we’ll see if Reese has better luck in Grand Am than he has in Speed GT. Sounds like teething problems with Hoosiers newest tires, too. ---

The big story will be whether Corvettte and Aston Martin compete in ALMS GT1 for 2007. Because of the disagreements about adjustments, both are pissed off. Racer had a good article about it. Corvette stated that they would run Europe’s LeMans series instead of the ALMS, as they don’t tinker with the rules race by race. ---

They just kept making the Corvettes heavier and heavier until the Astons could beat them. Lame. ---
