Well for now I will put this here.
The first sale of a Formula Le Mans Cup chassis that I have heard of went to the 2008 British GT Championship team Brookspeed/Trimite. This series is expected/reportedly to be headed to this side of the pond in 2010 or 2011. I would assume that it will take the same format over here and run as a support series to the ALMS, as it will run as a support series to the LMS. Will it just be the Oreca spec chassis that we will see on this side or will someone like Panoz get the contract for the US series? Or possibly it will become an open series with several mfg's supplying chassis to series specs. Oreca,Panoz,Radical etc..
