The IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship Roar Before the 24 has come to an end. After seven sessions of high-speed testing around the Daytona Speedway banking and through its twisting infield loops, success by some of the usual suspects was balanced by some completely unexpected triumphs from teams heretofore relegated to the back of the pack.
Saturday, the second day of the 2016 IMSA WeatherTech Sportscar Championship’s Roar Before the 24 test at Daytona Speedway didn’t actually dawn. Instead, the thick mist which filled the air glowed a bit.
The 2916 sportscar season is underway as IMSA’s premier sportscar series—with a new sponsor and a new name, but the on-track action—returns to Daytona International Speedway’s famous banking for the 2016 Roar Before the Rolex 24.
