Cool to see Racer's Edge fielding their 8. Guess 2012 wasn't the last time a Rotary is run in Grand Am even if RE doesn't field it past the 24.

Glad to see Lotus Evora and Porsche Caymen entries as well. Don't want a default win. But with Speedsource essentially fielding/testing 3 cars they should have a huge edge.

Less than a month to go...

It doesn't look like it.
GrandAm > Schedule/Results > results

There was one at Daytona, that was said to be running the whole season. Maybe they had sponsor problems.

Sponsor problems was a guess for the remaining RX8 not running a COTA.
This is the last year the RX8 is legal to run. Mazda pulled all money used to sponsor teams and directed it to the diesel Mazda 6 in GX.
