Archangel |
SRP 2 For Audi Petit Le Mans |
|
Archangel Motorsport, two time Grand Am Rolex Series Team Champions, will campaign one of their Lola B2K/40s in the LMP675 class of the American Le Mans Series season finale, the Petit Le Mans.
Archangel Motorsport will be entering their Lola B2K/40 Nissan in Grand Am SRPII trim rather than converting it into LMP675 specifications.
"Even though our car won't be built to the full extent that the ALMS rules allow, I think we will be able to make up for that with our speed and reliability," said team owner Mike Johnson. "Ben Devlin is our only potential driver at this time. It is likely that he will join on with the team for Petit Le Mans, but it is not yet confirmed. Ben just recently joined the team, winning two of his first three races with us. We are still taking requests to fill the other two seats."
Last year, Larry Oberto and Ryan Hampton shared the SRPII Grand Am Driver's Championship, while Archangel Motorsport's Andy Lally holds a narrow two point lead in the 2001 Driver's Championship with one race yet to go.
Archangel may have to depend on their 'Daytona' reliability if they are to stand a chance of winning the 675 class at the PLM.
