Roar Before the 24 Article by Steve Hoffman Photos by Steve Hoffman and Blake Blakely One of the many perks of living on the Space Coast is that the world watches as we kickoff each racing season with the Rolex 24 at Daytona. The “Roar” is our opportunity to get up close and personal with the teams, sneak in an early look at this years’ cars, and get out and enjoy the camaraderie that our club offers. A few members’ cars literally feet from the track Fifteen members met up at Lowe’s in Rockledge, completed our safety brief, and headed north up I-95. After a quick stop at Panera in Daytona to pick up a few more members and get a quick caffeine fix, we headed into the track. Another dozen or so Space Coast members were already on hand. As you get out of the car you are quickly reminded of where this event got its’ name. The symphonic roar of racing engines running at full throttle literally surround you. The excitement began immediately as the track was full and only a few feet away from our parking location. There was the Brumos 911 GT3 Cup number 5 with Hurley Haywood behind the wheel for one more last race. The defending champion Action Express Porsche DP’s now running two cars; the 5 and the 9. And then we were surprised to see the familiar Flying Lizards 45, but on a Porsche DP car. Later we got a good look at the BGB Motorsports’ Caymans who are running in the Continental Tire Series. We rushed to the fan zone and in to the paddock for open access to the cars, the volume 5, Issue 1 drivers, and the teams. They were all more than willing to sign autographs, answer questions about the cars, and accept well wishes. It was a great event, blessed with perfect weather, and enjoyed among good friends. If you have never been to the Roar, you are really missing out. Patrick Long testing the Flying Lizards Porsche DP car 5
