Press Snoop: Doing the double - ALMS and Grand-AM.

Thursday, 11th May 2006

This weekend both major sports car series are conducting events - American Le Mans Series on the new street course at Reliant Park in Texas for the Grand Prix of Houston on Friday night, and Grand American Rolex Series in Arizona for the Gainsco Grand Prix at Phoenix International Raceway on Saturday night.

Beretta is racing the factory Corvette #4 Compuware Corvette C6-R in Houston with co-driver OLIVER GAVIN. In Phoenix, Beretta joins the CITGO Racing by SAMAX Pontiac Riley DP with co-driver MILKA DUNO.

Cosmo is racing for B-K Motorsports in Texas, co-driving #8 Mazdaspeed Courage C65 Mazda with JAMES BACH in the ALMS P2 class. At PIR, Cosmo is continuing to fill in for the recuperating MEMO GIDLEY in #19 Playboy/Uniden Racing Ford Crawford DP, with co-driver MICHAEL McDOWELL.

Henzler is racing for Flying Lizards in #45 PortalPlayer/ShorTel Porsche 911 GT3 RSR in ALMS GT2 with JOHANNES van OVERBEEK. Henzler is racing for Tafel Racing in #72 Porsche GT3 Cup in the Grand-Am Rolex Series GT class with ROBIN LIDDELL.

Leitzinger is racing in Houston for the ALMS team he has raced with for years - Dyson Racing. Leitzinger will co-drive with JAMES WEAVER in #16 Thetford/Norcold Lola B06/10. In Arizona, Leitzinger will race #4 The Boss Snowplow Pontiac Crawford for Howard-Boss Motorsports, with co-driver ANDY WALLACE.

It will be a busy weekend for all concerned, as well as though who try to track them all.


To clarify what JAN MAGNUSSEN said last weekend in the podium conference at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca-he will race in the Phoenix Grand-Am Rolex Series with the SunTrust Racing Team. He does have other commitments, but this weekend is not one of them. He has schedule conflicts with the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Danish Touring Car Championship Series.
