January 25, 2012 by tom · Leave a Comment
On the previous slide we talked about the Grand Am Continental Tire Series and its Friday’s 2.5 hour race. Now we are talking about The Grand Am Rolex series 24 hours at Daytona which starts Saturday, 1/28/12 at 2:30 pm live and on Speed.
There are two classes of cars race at the same time at a Rolex race, the DP – Daytona Prototypes and the GT – Grand Touring
The big news in the DP class are the new Corvette fashioned DP cars. During the 2012 testing this new car seems to be very fast no matter what team were running it. Plus the Corvette car is so much better looking than the other DP cars. The perennial DP team to beat is the Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates / BMW Riley . There are also Ford and Proshe powered teams. Below are pictures of the new Gainsco DP car from this year and then last years last year car.

The GT competition is going to be great. There are a host of Ferrari 458s, Porsche GT3s, BMW M3s, Mazda RX-8s and Audi Sport AGs against a few Camaros, Mustangs, and one Corvette and one Viper. The big news is the arrival of the Grand Am GT purpose built Ferrari 458. If they don’t win it will be an embarrassment. The other news is that the sponsor for the Rick Ware Racing Camping World truck fell through. Jeffery Earnhardt, Dale’s grandson, was scheduled to drive that truck. so instead Jeffery will be the full time co-driver of the Rick Ware Racing Rolex Mustang GT Car team.
Below we have pictures of most of the AmericanCar teams.

Well, the Mustang she was posing with was supercharged and Kristen was a pretty charged up herself. Kristen listed retail as her occupation; I’m thinking she looks like a GAP girl. Kristen is posing with a friend’s 1989 Mustang. I love the Fox model of Mustang It’s just cool. The friend has put heads, cam and most importantly a Procharger brand supercharger in the Ford 302.

CHELCEA to the Rescue

Many times the AmericanGirls are related to the AmericanCars in some manner as were Rita and Brittany in the above posts. Sometimes I find a great AmericanCar and no AmericanGirl is related or remotely in sight. Such was case with this stunning 2007 Black Jack Mustang, more on the Black Jack in a later post. Luckily it only took a few minutes to run into Chelcea, she was handing out fliers for a company called Magdana. Chelcea is super cute, smart, nice, and was a natural poser, what a combo. She has the common occupation of student/waitress. Chelcea has migrated from Orlando, Fl to Jonesboro, Tn. FYI—Jonesboro is the oldest town in Tennessee and cool pace to visit.
