Took a look at the lineup and saw that Tom Long (he came to a meeting last fall to promote the family business, Long Road Racing) is once again a co-driver in Patrick Dempsey's #40 GT class RX-8. So we have someone to cheer for during the 14 hours of race coverage this weekend. (Prerace coverage on Speed started a few minutes ago)

Also, Marco Andretti was added this morning to the driver lineup of the #2 Starworks Ford/Riley DP car.

And some guy named Hurley is driving a Porsche.

I'm cheering for Leh Keen driving the #59 Brumos Porsche with that Haywood fellow. Leh was my co-driver in the One Lap as well as in one of the VIR 13 hour races. Hell of a good guy, and a great driver.

Hope Tom does well, too. :)

great race so far. Tom had a little slip up to add some excitement to an otherwise very low accident event so far. Have the DVR on right now so I can watch the finish this evening.

Jeremy and I are getting ready to settle in to the last 2.5 hours on the inner loop and finish her out. Great weekend down here, the 50th displays were great.
