49th Running of the Rolex

Good luck to all the Ford-powered teams in Daytona, I cant wait to land there and get on the scene!

Can't wait to see the Fr500's, Boss302*, GT, and DP cars go out there and do their thing, best of luck guys!

Keep us posted!

I'm hoping the TPN/Blackforest #11 Mustang posts a strong finish in GT! Been too long since a Mustang raced in GT on a consistent basis.



Also, wishing the Flying Lizard team in DP much success (as well as the Ford powered DP teams and Grahm Rahal's team.)



Strong field this year!

They just gotta win the GT class. And soon. I was very surprised a boss 302 wasn't in this years race. Also hope they take the win in the continental tire race.

Continuing my 3rd year of my new 'tradition'.
After watching Speed Channel's primer, I had to recall SMQ's "LeMans" from the DVR and get in the groove for tomorrow.
Man, that movie had some great race shots for its era!!

Well, Speed Channel is doing a lousy job showing anyone outside of the top 5 spots...

How many Mustangs are running today?

Oh- nevermind... They ran in the 200 yesterday.

Can't really gloat about the Camaro's too much, since there arent' even any Mustangs IN there....

Been an interesting race so far- "only" 4 cautions and just a few cars out or down laps. I couldn't believe the DP cars dug up that much turf on what appeared to be some pretty flat ground!

I wish they'd talk some about the teams and their machines.

There was suppose to have been one in GT (#11 TPN/Blackforest Mustang), but it withdrew the morning of the race with mechanical issues.
