level 5 withdraws from TUDOR

Says that they shouldnt have even been in the 2014 series in the first place. Didnt like the way they handled the delivery of the rules and everything else to the teams.

They simply ran out of money. There's no need to bad mouth NASCAR. If they could find a couple of drivers with big checkbooks they would be racing.

Dang...
If nothing else though, it's helping to de-clutter a too-heavy field of cars...

I can assure you that they did not run out of money!! They are just going to run a different series and basically only planned on running Daytona and after the rules issues and being robbed of the full experience of winning the 24 I think they decided to go elsewhere! They still have their P2 cars.

World Challenge is very very healthy this year, could definitely see them there. It has experienced quite a recovery over the past few years. Hope this means they get better production quality on their streaming broadcasts.

If I found a reliable streaming series, I'd be all over it. Level 5 isn't the only one disappointed by the TUDOR series...combined with Fox's "coverage" of the race, well, of the DP class leader, the series will collapse very quickly.

I would image TUDOR got an earful from the teams after the event, hopefully it changes. Not to mention it is not in the interest of the series to ignore the great racing that happened in the other classes.
Cross your fingers.

It maybe the best thing for the sport in the long run, to get the France family out of it.
