Unfortunately, the Rolex 24 is a shadow of it's former self. With the France family running it, they're seperated themselves from the ALMS/LeMans rule set, and their cars are now slow pieces of crap compared to the real sports cars running in the ALMS.

That said, I'll prolly still watch some of it. But I'll be more excited for the 12 hours of Sebring.

I agree,ALMS rules sports cars!

I will watch it,but like Tom said the 12 Hours at Sebring should be better.

LOL!
Withdrawl symptoms are at their worst this time of year.

It was so bad on Christmas, that my dad and I were watching a replay of the SCCA runoffs on SPEED.

This race has lived up to my expectations

Just 9.5 hours to the Super Bowl Kickoff


I think the C5R ALMS Vettes would have cleaned up on this field.

Yes they had a Focus and a Mustang.

Thank Heaven for the rain and the 6 hour stoppage or a lowly GT Porsche would have won again

Only 1 (one) DP was running at the end
