ACO/LMS inviting ALMS, JLMC(?) to race at Interlagos. Memo

Corvette Racing likely wont go as a team or maybe they would only send one car as at least Gavin (and maybe Beretta) is already contracted to race for Luc Alphand. It would sure be fun if they sent Pratt & Miller team (like at Spa 24) to set up the car and some more drivers and maybe one car to join Luc Alphand for the race!

ALMS and JLMC entries in the LMS round at Interlagos

Just saw on planetlemans that ALMS and JLMC teams have been offered entry into the Interlagos round of the LMS. Any thoughts on who would make the trip?
Guessing possibly the Acura LMP2s to test against next years LM teams and maybe C6Rs so they have some competition?

Think Acura, AGR or Fernandez, might go as a test against LMP2s from the LMS?

I think that the Acura teams would be interested in seeing what their cars pace was against the LMS P-2's. Corvette could also go with the#3 line-up with Papis and a mix in the#4 as there are plenty of GM drivers to fill the seats if the decide to go.?

There has been no mention (so far) of any changes to the planned/ advertised sixth and final LMS race of 2007 at Interlagos. With the announced invitation to the other "LeMans" series I would suppose that the ACO/LMS might be trying to strenghten the draw to the field in expectation of not getting all of the LMS teams to participate. Also nothing at the LMS site (link) indicates anything amiss nor at the Interlagos site (link). Just what is being corrected in the race line???? Or are you referring to the work that is being done to the track?

L.P.

Also welcome to the forum!

Some of the FIA-GT competitors ran the Mil Milhas a few years back. At least the PK Carsport/Carsport Holland C5R (the same car running under PK Carsport/PeKa Racing Banner this year). I remember Mike Hezemans and a few South American Drivers ran the car. It lead for a while then had some mechanical difficulties and finished somewhere around 8th or so. Maybe they should invite some of those guys to come and compete as well. Carsport Holland just showed they could take on Luc Alphand's Corvette head-to-head and give them a good whipping. It would be interesting to see Hezemans and maybe Fassler take on the Saleens.

Having read Murphy the Bear, I wonder if there will even be an Interlagos race. Should have been part of the ALMS schedule (and not LMS) from the beginning, IMHO.

If not Speed, then I would hope TSN would think about it at least (TSN-A is fine by me). Roger's, too.

Looks like VDS is thinking about going, as they are looking for a pay driver for Petit, Laguna and Interlagos (pending/optional).

AGR bound for Brazil according to AutoWeek with Tony Kanaan.
