The
2000 Grand American Road Racing Championship season was the inaugural season of the
Rolex Sports Car Series run by the
Grand American Road Racing Association. The season involved five classes:
Sports Racing Prototypes I and II (SR-I and SR-II) and three
Grand Touring classes referred to at GTO, GTU, and AGT. 9 races were run from February 5, 2000 to August 17, 2000.
The Grand American Road Racing Championship officially replaced the brief
United States Road Racing Championship
which had folded during their 1999 season. The Grand American series
used similar rules, although the class names were all changed. Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_Grand_American_Road_Racing_Championship_season.
The
2000 American Le Mans Series season was the second season for the
IMSA American Le Mans Series. It was a series for
Le Mans Prototypes (LMP) and
Grand Touring (GT) race cars divided into 3 classes: LMP, GTS, and GT. It began March 18, 2000 and ended December 31, 2000 after 12 races.
This season was the only time that the ALMS held races outside of
North America, with two events held in Europe and one in Australia.
These events helped with the creation of the
2001 European Le Mans Series season, although it was short lived. An Asian Le Mans Series was also discussed but not developed. Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_American_Le_Mans_Series_season.
The
2000 24 Hours of Le Mans was the 68th Grand Prix of Endurance, and took place on 17 and 18 June 2000. Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans.
