2017 24 Hours of Daytona

@FLRacingFan the track temp is 50* and it is a wet 45* outside. The prototypes are taking 2 laps to get enough heat in their tires to keep up with GTD cars.

Are you having a blast or what?!
 
The link below has hourly reports. Each one can be read to allow one to see how the events of have unfolded per hour. Maybe useful to anyone just waking up and wondering what they missed, etc

I'm surprised to hear about traction control and abs in GTLM. Is that new this year? Do the prototypes also have those driver aids? Disappointing IMO, I prefer emphasis on driver skills.
 
Wow impressed with the guy on the phone and the job he is doing as Dale Earnhardt Jr. Amazing how he "recalled" his own 24 hour race. Dude or his staff really did a great job to prep for that part.
 
10 car is looking good! Bummed I missed JG's last stint(assuming there was one between midnight and now)
 
a little under 2hrs to go at the ROLEX 24, looks like the Cadillacs have this race in hand but I'm sure anything can happen,
 
I hope green rest of the way, let em settle it on the track.
 
Loving this. Been a great race. Not once have I screamed at the commentators, its very nice for a change. Cadillacs and Fords gonna win class
 
Rahal and Hunter-Reay were very impressive last night.

They were clocking some fast laps in that new Acura and in the rain at that. Kudos to them both.
 
Ford just boxed themselves in on pitlane. Self sabotage ouch.
