Basically they are skiping Petit to run at Laguna Seca in October. I think you will see a decent field at Laguna fr the GT1 class.

Translated French article:

Laguna Seca: Saleen Oreca will not be voyage.

Oreca had emitted the possibility of crossing the Atlantic in order to take part in the finale of American Mans Series disputed on October 21 next on the circuit of Laguna Seca. Finally, the of the department of Var team will not carry out displacement. Currently to Albi for the Super Series FFSA, Pierre Dieudonné brings some precise details:

"We will go well in Jarama for the final as of Mans Series, but on the other hand we will not be present at Laguna Seca. A participation in this test would have constrained us to divide the team since the same weekend WP FFSA is with Magny-Course. We should thus have aligned a car in Europe and one in the United States, with the obligations that that imposes on the level of the spare parts in particular. We would have gone in Laguna Seca without all the assets in our play, more especially as Soheil (Ayari) will be in WP FFSA. If we will make a race in ALMS, we want to make the things well. The second frame, currently used for the spare parts, could have been ready for Laguna Seca, but we missed a second car for the parts. This conflict of date between the two championships is consequently the principal reason of our absence in California."
