It doesn't get any more competitive than a Rolex qualifying session. This Saturday, you'll get to watch it live on SPEEDtv.com from 1:45-2:35PM ET.


The Grand-Am Rolex series storms into New Jersey's Thunderbolt Raceway this weekend, and just as the Daytona Prototypes and GT cars will navigate their first laps of the brand new track, SPEEDtv.com, the Grand American series, and Pirelli have partnered to deliver another first -- live streaming qualifying right on your desktop.

"The Grand-Am series is known for its remarkably close wheel-to-wheel racing, and if you think the competition heats up on Sunday, wait until you see the cars in both classes fight until the dying moments of qualifying to earn pole position," said Marshall Pruett, SPEEDtv.com's Sportscar Racing Editor. "With the fields so evenly matched, a successful qualifying session is crucial to earning a good finish. I'm glad we're able to help Grand-Am fans watch the drama from New Jersey unfold live on SPEEDtv.com."

Grand-Am's ace commentators will do the play-by-play on Saturday just as they've done throughout the year, bringing their intimate knowledge of the cars and stars of the Rolex series to our online audience.
