Yeah, I might be a little late with this one, but I still think its cool. The XM Satellite Radio race car placed first in its class at the opening race of the 2007 American Le Mans Series last Saturday at Sebring, Florida.

The XM car (powered by Acura) took first in the LMP2 class at the historic Twelve Hours of Sebring race. The Twelve Hours of Sebring is one of the most renowned endurance races in the U.S. bring in teams from around the world to take part in the event. Over 140,000 people attended the race, and it also aired live on SPEED Channel.

The race marked the first time that XM has sponsored a vehicle in an American Le Mans Series race. It also was Acura’s debut in the series.

The XM vehicle was driven by the Andretti Green Racing team’s Bryan Herta, Tony Kanaan and Dario Franchitti.  For the past three years, Bryan drove the Honda-powered XM vehicle in the IndyCar Series. After Saturday’s win, Herta described it as "probably the most special victory of my career."

Even if you're not a gearhead, check out several photos of the XM-Acura racecar and crew with the XM Satellite Radio logo prominently displayed throughout...

XM Satellite Radio's Americana channel, X Country (ch 12), will be featuring a special show all about our favorite herb: marijuana. That’s right, the "420" show is an annual tradition over at X Country, and it's one that spotlights our favorite country-rock songs all about the ganj.

Some of the songs from the show will include: Commander Cody's “Down To Seeds and Stems Again,” Cross Canadian Ragweed's “Americana Rhymes With Marijuana,” and Dash Rip Rock's “Let's Go Smoke Some Pot,” just to name a few songs of the hour long set (there were others... but I forgot).

Ironically, the "420" show will debut during the week of April 16th (yes, if I'm reading that right, they're celebrating 420 even before 4/20). But keep that bowl packed, because there will be encore replays of the "420" show throughout the week.
