Conti challenge Daytona round #1

Sorry to hear about the motor and those Astons look stupid fast. Hopefully, the spare motor in the truck doesn't have a similar issue.

Also, the Rolex first practice times are up and the #77 Doran Prototype went 1:43.303 (faster then the old chassis ever ran at the roar) in its first time ever around any track or even at speed good enough for 7th spot! An absolutely amazing feat given that the car was built in 18 days and loaded without setup before going to the track and the very first laps ever taken. To come out and put yourself mid-pack without any setup data, testing on a brand new car speaks volumes about Kevin's operation in my mind. I really hope for a good result this year for the team as they have worked tirelessly to get ready in time.

Car back together and running. Downside is they missed the final practice before qualifying.
