Speaking of me not racing SNAIL this weekend. Here is a bunch of information for my race at Daytona on Saturday:
April 2nd, 2016, Saturday
Daytona Road Course – 3.56 miles
14 hours of Daytona
Green flag / Start time: 9:00 AM
Checker Flag / Finish time: 11:00 PM
Our Car:
1989 Mazda RX-7 Convertible w/ a 2002 Chevy Camaro V6 engine
#485
Red
Why is this so awesome?
My family has a pretty awesome racing history. My dad, Chuck, raced in the 1960’s and 70’s, mostly with the then editor and chief of Car and Driver magazine, Brock Yates, Sr. (ever watch the movie Cannonball Run? – that was Brock’s thing too). My dad and Brock finished
15th in the 24-hours of Daytona in 1967, one of the top non-professional teams that year. So, the opportunity for an all Krueger team to also race at Daytona is a dream come true for us.
Tentative Driver Schedule:
09:00 – 10:45: Chuck Krueger (my oldest brother)
10:45 – 12:30: Mark Krueger (Me J)
12:30 – 02:15: JC Krueger (my cousin)
02:15 – 04:00: Walt Krueger (my uncle)
04:00 – 05:45: Chuck
05:45 – 07:30: Mark
07:30 – 09:15: JC
09:15 – 11:00: Walt
The driver schedule could change for many reasons. One way to tell who is driving is by our gloves:
Mark – Black gloves
Chuck – Red gloves
JC – Blue & gray gloves
Walt – Blue & white gloves
