Now that is the question of the year!

I have once heard that folks who do HPDE actually get more track time in a given year than a typical professional driver.

It appears there is only one Aston Martin at this years race and its not the same one run by the prodrive prepped cars of years past. i believe Team Modena has competed in FIA-GT before. I thought last years team was supposed to be back this year, but it would be weird to miss Sebring.
