Daytona 500 Experience Welcomes
The No. 9 Action Express Racing Porsche -- The 2010 Rolex 24 Winner
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- The No. 9 Action Express Racing Porsche Riley
that captured the 48th running of the Rolex 24 At Daytona Sunday has
found a new temporary home -- Daytona 500 Experience.
The No. 9 Porsche Riley with drivers Joao Barbosa, Terry Borcheller, Ryan
Dalziel and Mike Rockenfeller captured North America's most
prestigious sports car race, edging the No. 01 Chip Ganassi Racing with
Felix Sabates by 52.303 seconds.
The 755 laps turned by Action Express Racing on the 3.56-mile road course
was the second most in the Rolex 24 and the margin of victory --
52.303 seconds -- was the third closest finish in event history.
Now race fans will have the opportunity to get up close to the winning
Rolex 24 car inside "The Official Attraction of NASCAR." The
car, complete with the scratches and tire rubber from the Rolex 24, will
be on display through the 52nd annual Daytona 500 on Sunday, Feb. 14.
Daytona 500 Experience is also home annually to the winning Daytona 500
car. Fans will have their last chance to view Matt Kenseth's No 17
51st running of the Daytona 500 car during Hershey's Milk &
Milkshakes Speedweeks 2010.
The No. 17 Ford will be returned to Roush Fenway Racing on Sunday
morning, Feb. 14 prior to the Daytona 500. The following day, the
attraction will welcome a new Daytona 500 winner during the
Champion's Breakfast.
