It is on the Prodrive site here - prodrive - 2 cars planned for Sebring.

I wish that were true, but, they will contest Le Mans with 2 cars. Prior to that they will only be running one car at Sebring, Long Beach and the Castellet round at Paul Ricard.

I really wish/hope that they run that car at Road America, I think it would fantastic to let that car stretch its legs.

If, AMR do make any races in the ALMS post Le Mans I believe it will be at Petit chasing the LMIC. But that I believe will depend on their performance at Le Mans and Silverstone (if they participate). IMO, Sorry!

I love this time of year with all the announcements! Positive radio interview given by Atherton to Autoweek sounds very bullish...

Alex Job Racing back in the series with 2 GTC cars. The #23 Battery Tender/ Patrón/Alex Job Racing with Sweedler/ Kapudija as drivers and the #81 Mission Foods/ Alex Job Racing with Gonzalez/ Leitzinger behind the wheel. Speculation is that there is more to come in terms of ALMS entries from this(?).

Good to see AJR back in the series even if it is just at the entry level, maybe there will be some expansion from this in the (near?) future.

I agree! It's great to have him back and even better if those providing the budget get hooked on the ALMS and fund efforts in GT and/or LMP in the future. Look at Ed Brown... how many cars will have Patron on them this year.

This class really seems to be changing the direction this series is heading. Like it or not, these entry level clsses are helping. AJR is back, nuff said.

Well it seems that rumor has it that Krohn might be out of GA. Will this mean an increased presence from the team in the ALMS this year?
