Ford sweeps Rolex 24 1-2-3

[Redster]

Ford won the 24 hour race at Daytona today. Of interest to MM owners, the Daytona Prototypes that won were powered by 5.0 DOHC 32 valve engines prepared by Roush Yates Engines.
In addition, a Mustang powered by a Roush Yates 5.0 DOHC 32 valve engine won the BMW 200 on Saturday.
Watch for a Grand Am race in your area and see both series.

Cheers,

Rod

A great run by Ford, wish they would build the whole car (think a Riley won) but Ford power did a great job. Sorry to read AJ Foyt, my all time favorite driver who was supposed to be grand marshall, was in the hospital. Thanks for posting Rod!
