Ahead of this weekend's racing lineup, Road America is gearing up for what could very well be its biggest IMSA weekend crowd yet.
According to Road America, 2023 saw the track’s largest turnout for an IMSA race weekend in over four decades, with the track expecting even more attendees as the WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and the Michelin Pilot Challenge will …
This attendance is great news for the track and IMSA.
Unfortunately (as far as I can tell) the race will only be available on Peacock. I'll just have to wait until it's posted in a few weeks on the IMSA app or the YouTube channel.
I haven't located an entry list, but I wonder if Crowdstrike CEO George Kurtz will be there in his LMP2 car, or if the cyber issue with the company will have him otherwise occupied.
Update to add that I just received an email from IMSA (is John Doonan spying on me?!?
) and it looks like the race will be shown on tv after the race is over ("encore presentation" is how it's worded), on CNBC at 5 p.m. CST Sunday.
I took the day off to go today. Since I have to leave on Sunday for a work week in Michigan I stayed home to wrap up some projects.
Booooo me.
But....will it be as many as Gridlife last weekend? Lol
Watched the Dark Horse Challenge race earlier today. What a mess. I know they want big fields, and it looks better with a bigger field, but half those drivers couldn't drive down to the Quik-e-mart without wrecking.
In reply to Coniglio Rampante :
Kurtz and the Crowdstrike team aren't listed as having qualified. Too bad, Colin Braun is a stellar driver.
Not a spoiler here in case some haven't watched it yet, but there was a lot of "red mist" on display today.
Is it just me or did the re-broadcast miss the start of the race? It seems to have gone to commercial during formation lap and then came back to them running under yellow.
You'll need to log in to post.
