CORVETTE WINS!!! ROLEX
24 Hours at Daytona!!!
Daytona International Speedway (Feb.4, 2001) -- The No.02 General Motor's Corvette Racing Team C5-R Corvette, driven
by Ron Fellows, Chris Kneifel, Frank Freon, and Johnny O'Connell, has made history and achieved the overall victory
of the historic Rolex 24 Hour race today.
This is the culmaination of a three-year development program for the Corvette Racing Team and follows their 2nd
place overall victory at the Rolex race held last year.
The No.02 performed flawlessly. Taking the GTS class lead from the start, they led the class unchallenged and without
major contact or mechanical problem. The race was led by the #16 Dyson Ford prototype for most of the night with
the Corvette slowly moving up in the overall standing through attrition of the other prototype car. When the #16
lost their motor this morning, the overall 2nd place No.02 C5-R inherited the overall lead.
The No.03 C5-R driven by Andy Pilgrim, Dale Earnhardt, Dale Earnhardt Jr., and Collins, finished 2nd in the GTS
class and 4th overall. A very impressive day for the Corvette Racing Team. Congratulations to the Corvette community.
