What offseason? NASCAR Sprint Cup Series drivers ready for Rolex 24 at Daytona
The Daytona 500 is still 30 days away. However, three NASCAR Sprint Cup Series drivers will be hitting the track at Daytona International Speedway this weekend.
Kyle Larson, Jamie McMurray and AJ Allmendinger are all driving in the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship Rolex 24 at Daytona.
Larson is part of the star-studded Chip Ganassi Racing No. 02 team with Scott Dixon, Tony Kanaan and Marino Franchitti. Pretty good company. McMurrary is driving with the Ganassi No. 01 team, which also includes Scott Pruett, Memo Rojas and Sage Karam.
