Poll: ALMS drivers of the decade

The list of choices includes the elite of the elite. It consists of drivers with at least 35 starts, five Series victories and/or one Series championship. Pick three drivers.

Voting will close at midnight on Wednesday, October 15 to coincide with the start of the Monterey Sports Car Championships. The Series will reveal the results during the weekend.

My favorite driver is Terry Borcheller from the GT1 Bell Motorsports team, but Jaime Melo's performance in the GT2 class of the 2007 Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring was amazing. He had worn Michelin tires on his # 62 Ferrari and there had been just two caution flags during the endurance race with the last one over two hours from the finish.

I like Jon Field's hard work.

Great drives at the 2008 Tequila Patrón American Le Mans Series at Long Beach

by Dirk Müller in the Ferrari F430 with Wolf Henzler and Patrick Pilet behind him in the Flying Lizard Motorsports Porsche 911s. A great pass by David Brabham in the # 9 Acura on the last lap.

Brabs is the only driver to win in every ALMS class (Panoz in LMP1, Acura in LMP2, Ferrari and Aston Martin in GT1, and Panoz in GT2).
