The Number 85 Children's Tumor Foundation Porsche GT3 qualified with the 5th fastest time of GT3 cars putting it throughly in contention for the checkered flag at the Rolex 24 At Daytona. Drivers Wolf Henzler of Nürtingen, Germany; Richard Campollo of SantoDomingo, Dominican Republic; Michael Gomez of Madison, Alabama; Daniel Graeff of Miami; and Ron Yarab Jr. of Poland, Ohio, have a strong car in their capable hands this weekend.
After qualifying last night the drivers came out early this morning for a meet and greet with NF Heroes and their families. More than 75 people crowded the Children's Tumor Foundation/Farnbacher Loles Racing garage for their first glimpse of the newly unveiled car. Reactions were anything but muted as the NF Heroes found their names on the car and had photo ops with the drivers.
The race beings tomorrow at 3 pm, we'll have live updates throughout the day and on Sunday. Check back later this evening for pictures from today's festivities.
