After 24 hours of non-stop racing, Action Express Racing has won the Rolex 24 at Daytona<\/a>. The race started off under wet conditions which probably explains a record of 53 lead changes. In the end, Action Express held off the Wilson\/Chip Ganassi Racing Daytona Prototype by just 53 seconds.<\/p>\n

Auto Express is new to the Grand-Am series but raced with support from the very successful and local Brumos outfit. Their Riley Daytona Prototype was powered by a specially-built version of the Porsche V8 and was similar to the car which won last year.<\/p>\n

GT Class honors went to SpeedSource’s Mazda RX-8 GT<\/a> which is also built in-part by Riley. They were joined on track by two new competitors: two Turner Motorsport<\/a> BMW M6s and a pair of Camaros prepared by Pratt & Miller.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
