Probably Horag.(?) Although we have been hearing snippets about CET also, so?

Or, it could be read, as the senctences are written, Penske is a RS Spyder team, and Dyson is another RS Spyder team. I didn't read it as an implication that there is a third RS Spyder team testing. The way the paragraph is written, it's not totally clear.

You're probably right - anyway we'll see, they are running today. Is anyone there with a camera? JT?

Yes. A report from someone there would be best, since the article mentions FLM being there, yet they aren't listed on the entry list at the ALMS site (not surprised?)

This is also what I took it to mean.

No... I'm back in Detroit now. Not a lot of reason to shoot tests... other than entertaining you guys. LOL - Teams typically don't pay for test photographers unless they're in full graphics and want to prepare advance promotional graphics. And.. most of us don't do this JUST for fun.

I thought I heard somewhere along the line that Porsche might be holding an all GT2 test. Can't confirm though.

Hmm. Looks like someone at SPEEDtv got a little trigger happy and let this out the bag!
SPEEDtv.com - The Online Motorsports Authority
Drayson/Barwell confirmation of full season! And 2 more besides it.(?)
