Personally, if you read "Paying to Race" Parts 1 and 2 over at www.lastturnclub.com , those articles will tell everyone here why an "International" or "World" Series will not work....the $$$ aren't there to run domestically, let alone fly to various parts of the world to do it....
The LMS has drawn 30k+ crowds to most events for the past two seasons.

If there's no ALMS the question is what would happen to the Panoz owned circuits of Sebring, Road Atlanta and is it Mosport?

They'll either become part of an ACO schedule, Grand Am, or an indepedent event.
