Question for you race people... we watched part of the race Saturday because Austin HAD to watch car racing. With all the different classes racing, is there only one winner or does each class have a winner??
Grand-Am has two different classes and each class has it's own championship and winner for each race. It's more prestigious to win the race overall but there is no tangible bonus for doing so. Sportscar races have little or no purse to begin with.
This past year the Penske Porsche P2 cars routinely beat the Audi R10 P1 cars even though the P2 class is supposed to be the lesser class compared to P1. However, Audi still claims the R10 has one every race.
