|  Another GT1 entry for 2008?
Who knows, could Pacific Coast Motorsports come back to the ALMS in GT1? Get back into a Vet or perhaps a Saleen?
They are clearly looking at their options.....Would like to think going to ALMS vs GARRA would be their first choice....  "We're working hard on our contingency plan," said Tyler Tadevic, the team director for Pacific Coast Motorsports, "and looking into all our options."
That includes the American LeMans Series...." San Bernardino County Sun - Champ Car's Walker ahead of the game
Edit: Now who was that photographer who shot for them in '06? Perhaps another team needing PR and photography in 08?

Would be nice to see that happen(hope for a Saleen if it does  ). Obviously won't hold my breath on it, though.

I probably don't know all the details, but their ALMS effort didn't impress me. Either way, more cars are always welcome. | |

In 2005 they raced a C5.R...not very well...complained that they didn't get enough support for their car from Corvette Racing...Didn't finish off the year. Then moved on to GA where they could race in a semi spec series. IIRC, they did burn the place up their either. Hard to be good at a series or prepping a car when you change it every year. Thus my ADD comment. | |

There are no available C6.Rs for them to buy, so should they come to the ALMS, it couldn't be with a Vette. | |

I never quite understood their exit strategy. The first outing (Sebring) was pretty impressive. But moving forward, (and I certainly don't know all the particulars) from a outsider's perspective, they appeared to quickly dial themselves out.

There is still a chassis that is unaccounted for (C6.R-006). I have seen where it is surmised to be a spare for P&M and is not for sale, as part of the tie in to that there will not be a 009 or 010 built this year (which would of served as back-ups), but if the price is right??
