Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, August 19, 2004 – As the American Le Mans Series

consolidate a points lead, or those hoping to move to the head of the pack,
Road America will be crucial for establishing momentum for the races that

the season-ending, run-into-darkness, 4-hour race at Laguna Seca.

Series; along with SPEED World Challenge Touring and GT; STAR Mazda; Formula
Ford Zetec Championship races; Mid-American Stock Cars and Super Trucks;
