Official announcement Wednesday Sept 5th, 10 am eastern. Technically it is being called a merger, but those in the know believe it will be a merger in the same sense as the Indy Car / Champ Car merger. . Grand-Am to buy the assets of the ALMS along with Sebring and Road Atlanta. With the completion of the new Circuit of the Americas it seems that the WEC stop in the US will move from Sebring to COTA. The WEC already scheduled a European race up against the Petite LeMans and if it moves from Sebring it will leave the two top ALMS without significant WEC support and cars. Creating very small car counts for their top two events.Don Panox was already buying air time out of pocket and it looks as if it was time to cut his loses.
