Since Keith reminded me, here's a thread for LM this year. Porsche, Audi, Toyota, and for once Audi is not looking the strongest at the moment. A couple new prototypes, Rebellion R-One and Ligier JS P2, as well as a couple new prototypes that have dropped out of the race. They managed to burn through all 10 reserve entries, and even invite back a team that previously withdrew, and even after all of that it's not 100% certain that there will still be a 56 car field on race day.
Anyway, here's the full entry list as of now.

I don't have any TV listings at the moment because FOX's schedule only goes 1 week into the future, but from everything that's been discussed, all 24 hours will be broadcast, just not entirely sure if all of that will be on television or not. Likely split between FOX Sports 1 and 2 though.
Americans are a bit depleted this year with no Risi, no Vipers, and no Level 5 going to Europe. However American teams have joined up with some existing entries: Flying Lizard is working with the JMW Ferrari, while Alex Job Racing has taken over the #79 Prospeed Porsche. Dyson is working with Greaves on the #42 Caterham LMP2, and Ricky Taylor has also jumped into the Larbre LMP2.
Anyway, here's the full entry list as of now.
