DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — The 2008 Rolex Series schedule includes 15 events with 14 races for the Daytona Prototype category and 13 events for the GT division.
Like 2007, the Daytona Prototypes will be featured in two stand-alone feature races at Watkins Glen (Aug. 8) and Infineon Raceway (Aug. 23) while the GT class takes center stage for the third-consecutive year with its own headliner at Lime Rock Park on Memorial Day (May 26).
The remaining dozen races will see the Rolex Series run combined events with the Daytona Prototypes and GT classes racing at the same time.
The season begins with the 46th annual Rolex 24 At Daytona Jan. 26-27 and concludes Sept. 20 at Miller Motorsports Park in Utah. The majority of the remaining schedule is similar to the 2007 campaign.
Grand Am officials are currently in talks with New Jersey Motorsports Park in Millville, N.J., about a late summer race, pending the completion of construction.
