ALMS Round 5: Mosport
I know Joeb usually starts race threads, but we only have five days until the race.
Smaller field for this round but I'm sure there will plenty to talk about. Schedule Entry List Timing & Scoring ESPN3 Video (Qualifying and Race) ALMS Video Track Map Spotters Guide Weather World Times Last edited by joeb; 16 Jul 2013 at 18:25. Reason: Added Links |

Hm, no track action until Saturday. Is ALMS sharing the weekend? Noise rules?

Does anyone have any news on who will be replacing Ryan Briscoe at Level 5 for this weekend??
I have not heard anything, except that Briscoe will not be ready to race this weekend. |

I'll be there Thursday AM. As I used to say on the old ALMS fans forum, I'll be the 40ish guy with the beer belly wearing some sort of racing hat/shirt. Very likely to have a beer in my hand. If you see me, stop for a chat.

Hey, wait just a minute there, Frank! That's me your talking about. Oh, never mind. Wrong guy, sort of. I'm 62 and all of the above, and I'll have a little white dog dragging me around. See you there!

No TV coverage again. Local that is. Bell Sat does not carry ESPN2, Bell Internet does not stream ESPN3 nor do they carry the Xbox Live stream. And no one bothered to set up a TV network cover ($$$). Boo hoo. I was hoping to record the race while at the track, but no dice. I guess I'll just have to pay attention, though that might be difficult. What with anticipation of having consumed mass quantities of beer. :-(

Enjoy the event everyone, first time in a decade or so that I'll miss Mosport. Seems strange.

It's been Creamer and Shaw, and whoever else, on the race feeds. So, for the race, it's the webcast version that gets posted.
I wish they would have left the ESPN and RLM guys together. Let the ESPN crew do the telecasts, and John and Jeremy do the webcasts. |

I'm pretty sure Joey Hand will be back in the #56 BMW this weekend and Leh Keen will be filling in for Bill Sweedler in the #23 Ferrari. I wonder how Ryan and Alex will do in a GTC Porsche?

I'll be there for my first ever trip to Mosport, flying up tomorrow. Will be hanging with Dysonfan and Racer Jason from the old almsfans forum. They host a huge party on Friday and Saturday nights, should be a good time!

For the tours, fans come by, and we let them into the garage area (normally off limits), let them see the car up close, and possibly inside the rig, if possible. If the drivers are around, we bring them out for a few minutes as well.
Wrapping up the final hours in the office. See you there. |

#23 might be a force to be reckoned with! Any idea why Sweedler is sitting out this round?
