00To help0 fans follow the on track action, the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship has introduced a revolutionary and state-of-the-art Leader Light System for the 2014 season. It allows fans to easily identify the position of each car in its respective class. The position of the car is displayed on an LED panel mounted on the rear side section of each car. The color of the LED number corresponds with the red (Pro) and blue (Pro-Am) colors utilized in both the Prototype and GT style of cars. For instance, a red #5 LED number on a GT style car it means that car is in 5th position in the GTLM class.
