Some events in the 2007 ALMS schedule were run in conjunction with other series. The events at Long Beach, Reliant Park, and Road America were run in conjunction with Champ Car while the events at St. Petersburg, Mid-Ohio, and Belle Isle were run in conjunction with the Indy Racing League.
Ethanol
Announced on February 8, 2007, the American Le Mans Series signed an agreement with the Ethanol Promotion and Information Council (EPIC) to run E10 ethanol-enriched fuel in all gasoline-powered entries. The fuel was 10% ethanol and 90% gasoline. EPIC also sponsored Rahal Letterman Racing's Porsche entry as part of the deal.[1] This was similar to Rahal Letterman's deal in the Indy Racing League.
