Long Beach is one of the marquee events and the ALMS took to the streets for the 2nd round of the Championship. We took to Twitter to check out the action.
Yep. Lets get the party started!

How do you watch Grand Am and ALMS at the same time – this is how. Oh how good is IP TV?

And on that, I don’t envy the job of whoever is equalling the LMP2 and DP classes. DP were running at about GT1 pace at their race at Road Atlanta
Wow.. checking the #GrandAm times @roadatlanta vs #ALMS for the first time today..there is definitely work to do! — Brian (rax262) (@rax262) April 20, 2013

Though we can’t figure out if BMW have been given too many performance waivers
So my thoughts on #ALMS @ #LongBeachGranPrix Corvette BOP was premature, Viper is now in the running, BMW looks great for a v6 car w/ a V8

Love him or not, Scott Tucker certainly loves racing
That’s awesome.. Scott Tucker jumps out of the No. 551 car and straight into the No. 552 during the pit stop! #ALMS — John Dagys (@johndagys) April 21, 2013
On a tight street track, you know there will be traffic…

It didn’t all go to plan for BMW after running wide at the start of the race but it certainly ended well
“A little mistake that helped the strategy.” A cheeky Maxime Martin celebrates with Bill Auberlen in a @bmwmotorsport Victory. #ALMS — Peter Leung (@BaronVonClutch) April 21, 2013
It was a great race for Extreme Speed too as they took LMP2 honours after Level 5 hit trouble

And the Cytosport HPD would overcome the Rebellion Toyota Lola to comfortably take the LMP1 and overall win
