Here are some things to look forward to in the first half of the year:
February:
The first major event of the 2005 season (and the only this month) will take place February 3rd thru 6th in Daytona, Florida for the Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona. This is a Grand American Series event.
March:
Another weekend to look forward to happens from March 3rd thru 5th at Homestead-Miami Speedway in Florida. This Saturday race will run 250 miles and is the second event of the Grand Am Series.
A second race in March will start off the American Le Mans Series, once again in sunny Florida, this time at Sebring International Raceway on March 16th thru 19th.
April:
April sees all three of the major series in North American Sports Car Racing hit the tracks.
First will be an appearance by the Grand-Am Series at California Speedway on April 1st thru 3rd. The race is scheduled to run 400 miles.
The next race of the season will be our first chance to check out the Trans Am Series in actual 2005 racing. The series is heading to the streets of California for the running of the Grand Prix of Long Beach on April 8th thru 10th.
The third race in April will come of the ALMS variety where the racers will see their first of two races at Road Atlanta in Braselton, Georgia. This will happen the weekend of April 15th thru 17th.
Taking us out of April and into May, will be the Grand Am Series cars for a 250 mile race at Mazda Raceway, Laguna Seca. This race is scheduled to occur from April 29th thru May 1st.
May:
The next race will again feature the drivers of the Grand American Series. This time they will travel up to Le Circuit Mont-Tremblant in Quebec for another Saturday race. The race is scheduled to run on May 19th thru 21st for 6 hours.
The other major sports car event in May happens that same weekend, in Lexington, Ohio. There the ALMS will take to the Mid Ohio Sports Car Course for a little action, and then race on May 22nd.
