2008 Rolex 24 hours of Daytona


Today is the 2008 Rolex 24 hours of Daytona

“The Rolex 24 driver lineup is a race fan’s dream, and the stock car and open-wheel boys and girls know this isn’t a cameo; the Rolex Series regulars are fast and know all the tricks in these cars,” Varsha added. “Sure, it’s a one-off for the visiting stars with no points to worry about, but everyone’s goal, series regular or hired gun, is to put a win in the Rolex 24 at Daytona on their resume. The new Pirelli tires are wicked fast, and while winning any 24-hour race is no weekend at the golf course, the Rolex is simply flat-out, all the time. The weather is always a factor, as are the long hours of darkness, and racing luck can send the biggest star home humbled. Just ask Tony Stewart. I can’t wait.”
