50 GT types expected for Daytona CFR SCCA/V8 StockCar 8/6
Five Vettes and more than forty other GT's and stock cars are entered for next weeks Central Florida Region SCCA/V8 StockCar points race.
The Corvette's entered are:
#4 Squeak Kennedy/Bosco Logsdon SPO C6 Rolex GT type LS6
#24 Bob Borders C5 GT1 Chevy SB2
#38 Juan Vento C6 GT1/SCCA Trans Am Chevy SB2
#91 Jordan Bupp C5 GT-1/SCCA Trans Am type Chevy SB2
#174 Roland Bauer 1972 C3 SPO, 23 degree Small block Chevy
We have an interesting mix of cars and drivers for next weekends CFR SCCA/V8 StockCar points race. Some fifty cars are now expected for the big bore group, with most eligible for points in one of V8 StockCar's four classes. Already there are 15 Porterfield Enterprises V8 GT-1 eligible cars, including three that are built to Grand Am Rolex GT rules. In our V8 GT-1 category we have a former IMSA Camel GT champ (Dick Greer), SCCA Trans Am competitors, (Ken Bupp, Jordan Bupp, & Juan Vento) plus former Grand Am GT competitor Keith Goldin in the Goldin Brothers Tommy Riggins built RX8. Also, Joe & Alex Gonzalez in a Pancho Weaver Camaro, Ray Webb in a ex Ryan Newman Dodge Charger, Bob Borders in a Corvette, Tad Segars in the HyPoxy Monte Carlo, Tom Keleher in a Derhaag type Camaro, Squeak Kennedy in the Bemco Grand Am spec Corvette, son Bobby Kennedy in a 2011 Bemco Camaro and the truly unique and very quick 1963 Tommy Riggins built tube frame Ford Falcon of Bill Riddell. Riddell's ride is state of art Trans Am type underneath, but with a very cool wide body, vintage look Falcon on top.
In our LG Motorsports V8 GT-2 category, points leader Bill McGavic in his fast tube frame RX7 will contest with Carlos Lira's Gary Yeomans Ford 2012 Mustang Boss 302S, Chris Harris' 1995 tube frame RX7, Mark Strong in a Panoz GTS, Gary Jensen in a 996 Porsche GT3 Cup car Terry Taylor in a Datsun 240Z and more.
In the PitBoxes.com V8 SPO class, former 3 time Nascar Goody's Dash champ Larry Hoopaugh leads a fast field with Lee Arnold in his V8 StockCar.com Impala,
Paul Breehne in his Rousch Yates Performance Parts Ford Fusion, Adam Romito in his Monte Carlo and ARCA racer Willie Mullins in a Ford.
The Howe V8 GTA class will be hotly contested with former champ Randy Walker, two time class runner up Tom Graham, Alabama fast guys Bobby and Roger Reuse, Hall Robertson, Cameron Lawrence, Jim Matheson, and John Davis on hand to do battle.
This should easily be one of the largest SCCA GT groups for the 2011 calendar year and those who haven't raced at DIS in a while are going to love the new, ultra smooth surface on the oval. All of the V8 StockCar class track records are in danger of being obliterated next weekend.
Here is a look at the current class standards for Daytona:
V8GT1: Doug Harrington Rocketsports C6 Corvette 1:52.239 8/8/09
V8GT2: Richard Smith Creative Motosports chassis RX7 2:05.442 8/8/09
V8SPO: Bill Smith super late model Chevy Bel Air 1.56.662 8/6/05
