2011 alms

I got to say that we'll have an incredibly diverse GT field next year if everything goes to plan:

911 GT3 RSR
Ferrari 458
Corvette C6.R
BMW M3
Ford GT
Jaguar XKR
Lamborghini Gallardo
Panoz Abruzzi

Plus

Lotus Evora GT2 for the ILMC. Hopefully we'll see this in time for Sebring & most probably in PLM.

Planetlemans.com | Jetalliance Racing confirms Lotus Evora GT2 entry

I'm excited! It will be interesting that's for sure!

I hope Robertson Racing will run 2 cars so we can see how fast that Ford is with an all pro lineup.


Some pics of the contenders:

Thanks for the update and pix. I'll be at Mossport in late July and can't wait. For me, ALMS is the only real game in town (not that the Rolextx DPs are chopped liver) but ALMS has more brand variety. Of course, it would be nice to have more entertainment w/ the big LMP 1 and 2 boys but brand diversity is what circuit racing has been and should be. Looks like we get more of it this year. I, too, will be curious how the big Ford does and I bet the 458 Italia kicks some a$$. Of course, I'll be rooting for the Porsche. Again, thanks for the intel and merry christmas.

Should be a great season in ALMS especially in the GT category. I see that Bergmeister and Long have signed on again with Flying Lizard they should be strong.

Hopefully BMW won't have so many exemptions this coming season.

ALMS is the best series in the US bar none. If Grand Am didn't have the Frances' money behind it they would be long gone.

The young lady with #81 needs to keep our flag off the ground.
