ELKHART LAKE, Wis. -- Dane Cameron and Eric Curran raced to their second consecutive IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship victory of the season and second in a row at Road America on Sunday.Curran started the No. 31 Action Express Racing Corvette Daytona Prototype from fifth on the grid and drove the opening stint, before handing the car over to Cameron for the finish in the 2-hour, 40 minute event. Cameron passed Jordan Taylor in the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Corvette DP to take the lead for the first time with just over an hour remaining.Cameron briefly lost the lead during the final pit-stop sequence, but retook it with 35 minutes to go. He was able to get away from teammate Joao Barbosa in the No. 5 Corvette DP on a late restart with approximately five minutes remaining and held the advantage over the closing three laps, winning by 1.152 seconds over Barbosa.It was the third consecutive 1-2 finish in IMSA competition for the Action Express Racing team. It enabled Cameron and Curran to close the gap in the Prototype class championship standings to one point, 253-252, behind two-time defending champions Barbosa and Christian Fittipaldi with two races.I was able to get a good restart and keep it going, Cameron said. I had a little scare where I lost the dash, and wasnt able to read anything to know if I was saving fuel or not. But then the yellow came out and the dash came back, and luckily we didnt have to save any fuel after that. Its great to see what this team has done, building it up since 2010. And you can see what weve come to in the last few weekends.In the GT Le Mans class, No. 4 Corvette drivers Oliver Gavin and Tommy Milner picked up their fourth victory of the season in a wild finish.

The win enabled Gavin and Milner to extend their lead in the GTLM point standings to 13 over Westbrook and co-driver Ryan Briscoe, 264-251.Dodge Viper co-drivers Ben Keating and Jeroen Bleekemolen won the GT Daytona class for the second consecutive year at Road America.

Nike Shox Clearance Sale . -- Eastern Kentucky thrives off creating havoc for others. Speculation about plummeting ratings for NFL games led the league to circulate an internal memo Thursday, saying the decline was a result of a variety of factors.Through the fourth week of the season, ratings across all networks are down 11 percent.Prime-time windows have clearly been affected the most, while declines during the Sunday afternoon window are more modest, the NFLs top media executives, Brian Rolapp and Howard Katz, wrote to the leagues media committee in a memo obtained by ESPN. While our partners, like us, would have liked to see higher ratings, they remain confident in the NFL and unconcerned about a long-term issue.Over the last 15 years, NFL viewership overall, the memo said, has increased 27 percent amidst a prime-time viewership fall of 36 peercent.dddddddddddd.One of the factors, the executives said, was the presidential election, something that they noted was not unprecedented.In 2000, during the campaign between George W. Bush and Al Gore, all four NFL broadcast partners suffered year-over-year declines -- Fox was down 4 percent, CBS was down 10 percent, ABC was down 7 percent and ESPN was down 11 percent, the memo said.The executives also said that they saw no evidence that concern over player protests during the national anthem is having any material impact on our ratings. In fact, our own data shows that perception of the NFL and its players is actually up in 2016. ' ' '
