Just curious, why is PLM 10 hours instead of what would seem a much more natural 12 hours?

They didn't want something the same length as Sebring I presume, but longer than the typical 1000k European races.
The Mil Milhas Brasil is 1000mi/10 Hours as well. |

curious to see what the schedule for 09 will be like...usaully sometime around lunch or right after the SPEED WC TC race.
never has been 10 hours and unless rains or there is a severe incident, we may never see it go the full 10. Petit Le Mans; so unique, so wonderful and such a blast. |

Not only can I not afford to get down to PLM, I'm stuck with my most epic weekend of labwork of the year overlapping with the race! I'm very peeved about this - I'll probably end up barely being able to follow it live. I'm excited to hear about what's coming for '09, but this will probably be the best prototype dustup of the decade...and a world-class GT2 fight on top of it. I wish I could be there!

It appears the Bell Aston has been withdrawn and we are down to 38 entries.

Maybe they can't find a 3rd driver?
