Didn't the Mustangs get hit hard with BOP for this race?

It was on Motortrend+ last year.
This year? Nothin'. Ugh.
I was able to find it on USA network.

I'm here in Daytona watching/supporting my buddy who's in the Andretti GT3R #43. (Scott Hargrove)

The Mustang GT3 sure does sound nice. But the winner today so far has been the beer (my gf lost)

One of my favorite races of the year …Damn work firewall keeping me from watching. I can see the standings but that doesn’t mean much when I can’t see/ know strategies, driver swaps, pit stops, etc.

Looks like 01 Caddy is out of contention… was my pick to win GTP, especially with their driver lineup. As much as I don’t care for Acura, I’m a fan of Jordan Taylor so hoping they do well.

My other picks aren’t doing too bad as of now:
LMP2 - Ben Keating in the 02
GTD Pro - 04 Corvette Racing
GTD - Winward AMG

I’d love to see the Fords do well, but wasn’t expecting to be a top runner based on BOP and it being a new platform in their first endurance race.

7:13:00 remaining
EDITED

All 3 are Mustangs.

Two in GTD Pro are in top 10.
GTD Pro = #64 #65
(red numbers)

Don't see it listed on top 10. Maybe out?
GTD = Car #55
(green numbers)

We bought all our beer at Target and packed it in cooler back packs. Prices aren't even that bad if you were to buy it inside though.

Any rain today? I know a front was moving through.

None at the moment, it did start to spit a bit late last night though.
