 In August 2007 , Fredy <unk> and Didier <unk> announced their preparation of a former FIA GT MC12 for use in the American Le Mans Series . The car made its debut at Road America , finishing 3rd in the GT1 class after qualifying competitively . The only other race entered was Round 11 at Road Atlanta for the Petit Le Mans where the team failed to finish following an accident , but were still classified second in class . Doran 's Maserati however had qualified on the class pole . The team selected Michelin tires instead of the <unk> originally used by Maserati Corse in 2005 , and was also allowed to race with a full @-@ width rear wing instead of the smaller wing used by Maserati Corse and teams in FIA GT , although the wing was not as tall . IMSA also allowed Doran to score points in the American Le Mans Series championships .
