I can't help but think this is great news to compliment Dyson racings PWC announcement. ESM and Oak seem likely next.

Well, the TUSC is going to murder sports car racing in this country.

gtlm and gtd are fine.

They haven't been able to make dp and p2 work. They need to decide if they want to cater to a dead platform (dp) or build for the future (p2). Like Highlander, there can only be one.

They have sucked with managing races too, but that can improve.

Wasn't this already announced? Or am I thinking of yet another prototype team that has jumped ship while the getting was good?

There was no reason why they had to run DP and P2 together.

Why run in a series you can't compete for a win? Pickett stayed in Tudor because he thought he had a chance at overall wins. Turns out he doesn't so he just spent a ton of money on a new car and equipment to be off the pace. I was hoping he would get Nissan's program. I would like to see him run a couple cars in Indy Lights next year with the new car, but that is just an idea I don't think is likely.
