Rounding out the podium in Daytona Prototype was the Ford Riley of John Pew and Michael Valiante. They worked their way up from a 10th place qualifying position to put Michael Shank Racing in the money, and 18th in overall points.  

Grand Touring class winners Andrew Davis and Robin Liddell had no easy go of it in their Stevenson Motorsports Pontiac GXP.R,  as they stormed from 5th place qualifying to capture the top spot. 

Second place finishers Sylvain Tremblay and Nick Ham put up a valiant effort in the number 70 Speedsource Mazda RX-8. 

Third place in GT went to the yellow Drinkin' Mate Pontiac GXP.R of Paul Edwards and Kelly Collns.
