Cars arrive over a week in advance of PLM, so ILMC entries would need no European events, at least two weeks.
I suppose the manufacturers would have to weigh up the prestige of winning vs the cost, logistics and whether anyone (outside of Road Atlanta) is going to be able to see the race with whatever the tv package ends up being.




In other news it looks like Team Bruichladdich could be at Sebring. The stumbling block? Scheduling...
