    Rolex 24hr at Daytona

    Hey is anyone going up the the 24hr race? I will be up there working for a team in the Continental Tire Sports car Challenge, and possibly working on a DP team for the 24hr race. Looks to be a good year in Grand-Am as there are around 60 cars for the CTSCC race. There is a STi in GS and the new Camaros are looking strong as well.

    Josh, what team are you working for again?

    I'll be heading up late Friday or first thing (dark) Saturday morning. Anybody want to come along, let me know.

    I worked with CA Sport on a White Mustang and a Red Civic. Mustang blew a rear rotor that destroyed the caliper. The civic came from 30th to 14th. Was a tough event. Also had to change the motor in the mustang. Very busy week

    Actually wound up Scott Pruett for the almost win. He finished second to a dark horse kinda sorta Porsche V8-powered car.

    Scott is a great guy but I can't stand Ginassi teams. So I'm glad they didn't win. Fun seeing the Underdogs win. The Action guys had an old Brumos car too. Great job goes to Speedsource. They deserve it epecially what happend to Sylain. It was a great race. Hurley's swan song, debut of the Camaros and M6's, Corvette actually running up front for a bit, Prototype teams with different engine manufacturers, the return of Borcheller, and extreme bad weather. My only complaint was the start time of 3:30pm. DIS and GA had no on track activities so you'd wake up at around 8:30am and do nothing till 3:30. They need to change it back to 1:00pm or hold more support races like the HSR ones they used to have. Either way, had a great time as always and it was my last hoorah with the boys for a bit.

    Hopefully soon I could do the Florida 36 with Aidan as my sidekick.
