Do you see all the pontiac commercials during Rolex races? I doubt its a coincidence.
Kind of sucks to be Porsche this year. Getting pummeled in both ALMS/LeMans and Grand Am.
While I hated it when all the GT series were Spec 911, Porsche has been the only manufacturer to consistently put in major development into the GT class over a long timeframe. Then a few tubeframe cars come along and after 6 months of development are whuppin up on the p-cars (although in fairness, the Panoz has been around for quite some time and deserves a shot at being competitive)
