I am excited to go yet sad as it could be the last one with a decent size grid of ACO cars. I will bet money to boost the grid next year they will invite Grand Am cars as a gesture of good faith and as field filler as they won't have the boost of the ELMS cars. Add to that the Oct. 19 date clash with the WEC and the expected lower LMP counts in the ALMS next year and LMP1 and 2 look pretty sad for a 10 hour race. I can barely justify going this year, unless things change dramatically (i.e. make it a round of the ELMS) I really doubt I'll go so I'm making this one count.
