American LeMans on CBS?
Is the American LeMans series being covered by CBS? It looks like there's a few races covered...? Is this correct? I can finally watch great racing w/ out the Speed Channel for a change

I heard the GT2 series winner from last year, Petersen Motorsports - White Lightening team, had problems at Sebring over the weekend. Did anyone catch the details?

I couldn't stand to listen to the nASScar style commentary, hopefully they've gotten their act together.

CBS has used Bill Adam in the past. He's pretty good. Otherwise I think Speed's coverage is a little better if you can get past the NASCAR promo spots littered through the broadcast. I don't know why they bother. Is there very much crossover from NASCAR to ALMS? I doubt it. It makes sense for the Grand Am I guess.
