Who ran the white GT car from last year? I have a picture or two from Daytona, but that's all I saw of it.

I have posters of the black and orange GT class blackforest cars from the late 2000's, they were pretty gnarly cars, but the 24 hours were tough on them.

That was the old Blackforest car.

The motor is from Roush-Yates and Jeff (realized who he was after I got home) related it was a little hotter than the GS cars/Street Boss.......

Paint: it was finished three days before the Roar, the cage was still bare metal, so I'm sure the car will look beter for the 24.

Good stuff.

Too bad the Boss could not finish, then again we can't have a Boss win everything, that would not be as fun.

Scott, great photos once again. I think your first photo might be the best. The Ferrari's look fantastic out on the track, were they competitive?

BTW I got my poster of the KB Boss this week and it's now hanging in my garage. Thanks again!

I believe one or two of the Ferrari's dropped out, but one of the two remaining finished 5th, the AF/Risi Comp guys, who run ALMS. The other team that finished was the ESM team that also runs the Patron green and black 458's in ALMS.

Anytime, glad you like the pic!

I was rooting for the RWR Boss. Rear suspension problems took them out. However Ford was 1, 2, 3 in DP!!!! Also my buddy Leh Keen made podium in GT with Brumos Racing. Congrats!
