Team QuattroWorld has now descended upon the Media center at Daytona and we are ready for an exciting weekend! Both Audi R8 Rolex Grand-am teams have qualified mid pack and are ready to make a strong push into the 24 hour race. The Audi R8 from Team Oryx qualified 15th in the GT class, and APR was not too far behind in 21st spot in class. The teams may be disappointed to have qualified mid pack, but remember this is a 24 hour race, and almost anything can happen. (Full qualifying results below).
Stay tuned all weekend and we hope to bring you lots of great updates throughout the weekend!
