Audis 1 and 2 as usual. Brabham very close third at .094 back.

Didier deRadigues takes pole for LMP675 in the Dick Barbour Reynard.

Pilgrim outpaces Saleens in GTS by .295 seconds for pole. Strangely Fellows took dead last with some sort of problem.

BMW GTRs rule GT1 as the sweep the top three positions.

Rydell takes 5th position in Ferrari 550 GT for GTS.

Should be an interesting race to see if Fellows and company can get Corvette into contention from last place. Will the Audis hold off Brabham and Magnussen in the 6.0 liter Panoz? Will Herbert and company break through in customer Audi?

wonder how long the gts ferrari will last. we all thought the saleen could not make 12 hrs, the smart money says the ferarri won't make 10, will we be surprised again(course even if they did make it, they probably wouldn't be in a position to win like saleen, but still, it would be huge)
