As noted in an earlier TeamZR1 mailing list item, Mallettcars will enter a "Z06" in the Friday, Feb.2nd Motorola Cup Race at Daytona. This is the Reese Cox car that ran Speedvision and Motorola Cup races last season. It is being totally "freshened up" for this event. In early testing, they have reportedly been 4 seconds quicker than the factory cars, and set an unnofficial class track record. This was done with less than a fresh engine, and year old G Force tires!
The interesting thing about this entry is that it will definitely be co-driven by Steve Parks of Dale Earnhart Inc., and should get some good press as a result. If the car can stay out fo harms way, they should be a formidable force in the race. Unfortunately, while the 24hr. will be televised live, the MC race will be tape delayed. Don't know the broadcast date.
