Daytona Race Weekend Grand Am/Rolex 24

[MSOsr]

Rob (ZPresence), my son (Michael) and I met up in Daytona for the Friday Grand Am race (with 3 350Zs). We then stuck it out most of the day on Saturday for the Rolex 24, but eventually succumbed to the rain and went home.

Enjoy the photos. Starting with the 3d place finishing 33 car from Performance Nissan:

Despite the weather on Saturday, we had a great time! Hope a bunch of us can get together next year. Quite a show!
