Someone asked me to recap Daytona since I was just standing around all weekend
Large field, great weather and many awesome cars. Congratulations to Rossella on her hard fought victory! Ed Dickenson pressured Rosella the entire race with neither giving an inch or making any costly mistakes. Fun battle to watch. Nice job Ed!
Jim Johnson got a great start and was building a nice lead when he had unfortunate contact in the bustop and retired early. Jim was okay and he'll have his Red VD back to new for the next race.
Congrats to Stan on P3. The Capone's were driving well early but Ricky had to pit after running over debris in the bustop and not sure what happend with Brice.
The FSCCA cars had a 13 car field. I think they were all close and all finished with no incidents. I know Mark Eaton won and Matt Inge came from behind to take P2.
Fisrt time I got to watch Don Boughan drive vs. being on track myself and then seeing only a brief glimpse. He is amazing in the Daytona infield. Fast, smart, and always under control.
Ken's new F1000 was also fun to watch. It looked very quick in the turns and seemed to leap forward on the banks. He was under 2:00 running alone - very impressive session. Look forward to seeing him later this summer on the Sebring long course.
