	24 Hours of Daytona - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Rolex 24 at Daytona is an sports car endurance race held annually at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida.
		Also, it is roughly the half of the distance the 24 Hours of Le Mans winners covered at that time, but similar to the Sebring 12 Hours which is also in Florida and hosted a few weeks later.
		Thus, the Daytona race was styled since 1966 after the even more famous 24 Hours of Le Mans race itself.

	2001 Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona - Corvette Action Center
		We were treated to an afternoon of first round qualifying for all classes for the Rolex 24 Hours, and the conditions were downright dodgy.
		The rain had been spitting and had gotten the track just wet enough to cause a decision to be made between wets or dry tires, but as the session went on, the racing line dried and the cars that had switched early to dry tires, definitely had the advantage.
		For the first hour, you would think that the race was only two hours long, with the dicing and passing, and sprint pace, but little did we know that this was business as usual.
