DAYTONA BEACH, FL – Paul Miller Racing has completed it’s IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship pre-season preparation with an impressive test at the Roar Before the 24 at Daytona International Speedway.
The No. 48 Lamborghini Huracán GT3 Evo completed 175 laps across three days of testing at the venue for the opening round of the 2020 championship.
Paul Miller Racing will field Bryan Sellers at the Rolex 24 at Daytona with his full-season teammate Madison Snow, endurance teammate Corey Lewis and Lamborghini factory driver, Andrea Caldarelli.
| “This weekend we were really focused on setting up the car and extending tire life as long as possible in each stint,” Paul Miller Racing founder, Paul Miller said. “Although all the drivers are part of the Paul Miller Racing family and have played an important role in our team in previous years, this will be the first time that this exact line up of Bryan, Madison, Corey, and Andrea have driven together. “This weekend was all about race set up and getting everyone comfortable in the car and getting the best from the car over the entire 24 hours of the race in a few weeks.” The team will now return to it’s Atlanta base before returning to Florida for the opening day of track action on January 23.
