Just checked the site for this week's race at St. Petersburg. Only two entries in GT1, #'s 3 & 4. No competition. What's going on?

Don't know what's happening - that would be a strange race.

So what little television coverage they got at Sebring, will be even less this race. More tv time for the others

That's really too bad. On the other hand, it's nice to see a bunch in the P2 category.

Default Update.................
#3 out with mechanical problems. Will finish in last place in GT1. The #4 is leading 2nd place by over 68 laps.

What happens if the #4 fails to finish? Do they still win and get to stand on the podium? Does Chevy still earn manufacturer's points?

The AM team is probably still asking for a 500 pound weight advantage again. Really I have no idea.
