Grand Am / ALMS has a new name

Well they didn't ask me...........rrr:

 

Justa not fair I tell ya. :smilewinkgrin:

 

I meant they didn't ask me if the name was OK before deciding on it.....as they should have. :biggrin5:

 

Is the series sponsor United Airlines or United Vanlines?

 

Sounds like a secret call sign from the old SLA!

 

:cornut: Symbionese Liberation Army(Patty Hearst's Stockholm Syndrome Buddies) WOW! Take me back. You must be as old as me, 60yo.

Whatever it's called, it won't visit Mid Ohio after this year.....and that SUCKS!

 

ALMS is gone from Mid-Ohio for this year But I didn't see anything that said the new series wasn't coming next year.

If that's the case I probably won't be getting the VIP pass

 

Yep, they took Mid Ohio off the schedule after this year.

 

So this year we get Grand Am & ALMS & next year nothin???

 

This year we get Grand Am, no ALMS. Next year after the merger, we get squat. They do not have Mid Ohio on the post merger schedule. Also this year the NASA Championships are gone from Mid Ohio.

 

Jason, 65 and loving it (well, most of the time!!).

 

Wow Mark, that sucks for us & Mid-Ohio. How can a track stay in business if they lose big events? Sad stuff.

 

I can't find anything on 2014 tracks. But if they're not at Mid-Ohio this will be the last year for a VIP ticket. I'll just go to Vintage and Indy with a general admission.

This really sucks.

 

:fingerscrossed: My fingers are sure to cramp up by then. :fingerscrossed:

 

Steve, if I remember correctly when the merger was announced they also listed the tracks that would get the combined new series and a point was made that Mid-Ohio was cut. The comment made in the article that although they felt that MO was a good venue they just didn't have room for it. I'll try to find the article.
