Any thoughts on Sebring? Was surprised there were no threads.

I always enjoy watching the Corvette Racing C6.R's in action but I was busy yesterday. I did watch the Formula 1 qualifying which I recorded the night before. Although, someone already posted the Sebring race results I'm going to watch the highlights which are being re-broadcast this morning (9AM Mountain Time).

Everyone has their favorite car and team but my complaint with watching the ALM series has been the TV coverage seems to focus primarily on the P1 class cars...the other classes seem like 'also-rans.'

On the ALM website they define the GT class in part as "Production-based, moderately modified two-wheel drive race cars...." Moderately modified? If they think the GT class cars...if they think the C6.R is "moderately" modified then my car is stock.

These race cars only resemble a Corvette. To bad there aren't any "real car" races on TV.
