The Rolex 24 At Daytona showcases the world's best drivers from a variety of disciplines competing against each other lap after lap for 24 hours on the challenging and demanding 3.56-mile road course.
70 champions from all kinds of racing. More that 25 countries represented. The best fun of 2014 stands to be had in the GT Le Mans (GTLM) class, which in the early hours of the Rolex 24, featured a pack of SRT Vipers, Ferrari 458s, BMW Z4s, and Porsche 911s all running within three to five seconds of one another. The brand-new Chevrolet Corvette C7.Rs had experienced teething problems early on, but reeled in the leading Porsches as Saturday night inched closer to Sunday morning. Of course, 2:10 p.m. Sunday is a long way off.

Kyle Larson, the 21-year old NASCAR Cup rookie has been impressive racing in many different series. Maybe he should be driving the #3 in Cup this season...
