It will be an adjustment on the eyes to notice how fast these DPI cars will be. Despite the full field start, I think the GTDs will get lapped within 15 minutes. GTLM and LMPC probably in less than 25.

At 10 to 12 seconds different in fastest times from testing for DPi / GTD (struggling to find full results ATM), this seems to be close enough!

Can't wait. 46 total entries is perfect, imo. Just enough to make the traffic interesting but not too terribly crowded.

The way I see this:

DPI: Cadillacs are certainly the favorites again.
GTLM: Wide open. Any of the 10 cars could win
GTD: Wide open still. Anybody short of the mostly Am based lambo teams could win.
LMPC: Please lets see the BAR1 and Starworks cars crash out or break in the first hour and not be seen again.

As it turns out, the track walk was indeed just for team personnel! So many mixed messages.

5 laps into opening practice and Mazda leads the chart with a 1:50.6. My guess is times will ultimately be 3-4 seconds under last years pole.

GT times by the Fords already more than a second under previous pole.

Edit: P times are down to 149.5 as well.
