History

The Beginning

John Bishop worked for the SCCA (Sports Car Club of America) as an executive; he wrote the technical rules for many of its series and provided artwork for many of the club's magazines. By the mid 1960's, the SCCA made the big step into professional racing rather than remain as an amateur only racing organisation which it had done since its formation in 1944. The SCCA formed two of its major professional racing series, Can Am and Trans Am. Tension arose between staff over the club's new direction, and, as a result, John left the SCCA to start his own organisation.^[1] The SCCA could be considered the grass-roots level of auto racing in the United States. ... Cover of Car and Driver magazine, showing transparent diagram of CanAm racer The Canadian-American Challenge Cup or Can Am, was an SCCA/CASC sports car racing series from 1966 to 1974. ... The Trans-Am Series was created in 1966 by the SCCA as the Trans-American Sedan Championship. ...

Bishop met with NASCAR founder, Bill France, who was looking for somebody to help launch a new road racing series. Knowing that he found the right person with a bit of thought, France accepted the deal. Bishop with his wife Peggy worked hard to build his project, devised all of the initial rules and he even designed the new organization's logo. As a result, IMSA was formed in 1969.^[2] Two races for Formula Ford and one for International Sedans were organized that year at Pocono International Raceway and Alabama International Motor Speedway. Formula Ford is a single seater, open wheel class in motorsport which exists in some form in many countries around the world. ... Pocono Raceway (formerly Pocono International Raceway) is a superspeedway located in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania at Long Pond. ... Talladega Superspeedway is now the official name of a motorsports complex located north of Talladega, Alabama, that was formerly Alabama International Motor Speedway. ...

New ownership

After Bishop and France sold the series in 1989 to Mike Cone, who relocated the IMSA headquarters from Connecticut to Tampa Bay, it had a checkered 1990s with multiple ownerships and a name change to Professional Sports Car Racing (PSCR). Cone lacked dedication and full-time commitment and in turn sold it to businessman Charles Slater. Both lost millions in half-hearted attempts to revive the sagging TV ratings. In 1996 Slater sold the organization to Roberto Muller (ex-CEO of Reebok) and Wall Street financier Andy Evans, who also was an IndyCar owner and owner/driver of the Scandia WSC team. Evans and VP of Marketing Kurtis Eide were responsible for the name change to Professional Sports Car Racing (PSCR). It has been suggested that this article be split into multiple articles. ... Landsat image of Tampa Bay Tampa Bay is a large natural harbor and estuary along the Gulf of Mexico on the western coast of Florida, made up of Old Tampa Bay, Hillsborough Bay, McKay Bay, and the New Tampa Bay. ...

Under tremendous pressure from team owners and management Evans sold the series to Don Panoz in 2001, to solidify the sanction for Panoz's American Le Mans Series which had been sanctioned by PSCR since 1999. Don Panoz renamed the sanctioning organization back to IMSA and is now the official sanctioning body of the ALMS, as well as the Star Mazda series and the Panoz GT Pro series. The ALMS uses regulations based on those of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, but in 2005 the relationship between Panoz and the Le Mans organizers, ACO, has become problematic.

A breakaway series formed by the USRRC in 1998 involving the Sports Car Club of America and headed by a group of competitors wanting to keep rules within the United States initially failed. A second attempt with full support of NASCAR's France family and other motorsports notables known as Grand-Am began in 1999. Grand-Am struggled early on, but has proven to be a formidable competitor to the ALMS in recent years with name drivers, considerably larger fields and much closer competition. Much like the split between Champ Car and the IRL this split has been detrimental to the sport as a whole. Attendance, sponsorships and media coverage have dropped dramatically since the split in 1998.

The Indy Racing League, better known as IRL, is the sanctioning body of a predominantly American based open-wheel racing series. ...

The ALMS and the ACO have disagreed on several point since the inception of their relationship which have caused lower than expected number of entries on the grid. This has forced the ALMS to make decisions that are contrary to ACO rules to boost field size and fan interest by allowing cars to campaign the 2005 season that do not conform to ACO rules. However, the announcement of Porsche's return to Le Mans style prototypes and several new chassis becoming available for 2006, there is optimism that the ALMS will rebound.

Only the exhaust systems and shock absorbers were free and like its GT counterpart, engine size, otherwise the series itself was based on rival SCCA Trans-Am's Two-Five Challenge rule. ^{[11] [12]} The series, which would later be known as Champion Spark Plug Challenge, became dominated by a mostly by Mazda's rotary powered RX-2 and RX-3 as IMSA specified heavier weights than piston-engined cars and prohibited any modifications to the rotors. ^[13] The Datsun also had a fair share of fun within the series with cars such as the 510 and 200SX.
