Default ALMS Round 3 Long Beach Apr. 18-19

Looks like Tomy Drissi is in the Autocon car for LB. No vdS Radical or #73 Tafel car again as we suspected. Still no De Ferran and Drayson Barwell is still showing the DBRS9. Hopefully the list will get updated as the event gets closer.

Hopefully Drayson-Barwell can get that Vantage soon. I'm really wanting to hear/see that thing in person.

Everything else is as expected, though. 29 cars is a plus compared to last years count of 26(25 raced after Cytosport dropped out).

I'd like to see Gil's Acura sooner rather than later. We could see a huge grid for the last couple races of the year! (Cytosport, Arena, De Ferran, Doran, Kuttner, Trans Sport, Pug, Creation, JMB, Horag, ECO, & 2nd cars from Vici, Corsa, & Farnbacher all also possibities??)

The De Ferran Acura should debut at Salt Lake City. Robert Clarke told me that the had originally targeted Houston, but are now pretty sure of doing SLC.
