2012 50th Anniversary of the Rolex 24 at Daytona

so uh, anyone else going?

I attended the Roar Before the 24 test days a couple weekends ago (photos) and the p-cars look strong again. Flying Lizards is back again but this time with a 911 (versus a DP car last year). A business associate of mine is running a boxster in the ST class for the continental tire support race on the Friday prior to the big show on Saturday.
