53 starters
Scott Pruett took pole in the Lexus
17 Daytona Prototypes this year, 3 times more than last year
Mike Borkowski just lost a wheel
Paul Newman is racing

Few Nascar guys in the race, wonder how they'll cope with doing right turns, headlights, wipers and racing at night.

Currently Terry Borceheller is leading.

Another shot of the Stanton wreck for those not watching... surprisingly there wasn't too much damage.

Borkowski's wheel going off...

The number 17 Porsche GT3 wrecked... team car for the Stanton car. Hmm guess they aren't having a great day.

Kevin Buckler defending overall champion had their transporter catch fire. Most of the equipment was destroyed, thankfully their cars only suffered smoke damage. He is still running, which is an achievement in itself.

Lots cars losing tires.

Paul Newman just got in, light fading and rain and a 79 year old driving a Daytona Prototype.
