Friday at the Rolex 24 may be the lull before the storm. There’s practice, and final preparations before the race. For Audi, this meant trying out a new suspension setup for the R8 GRAND-AM that seems to be preferred by the drivers. We learned other things during the day, including the names of the 51 and 52 cars – Dixie for the APR-owned #51 and Heidi for the #APR liveried though primarily German operated #52.

We’ve added a full photo gallery from Friday. See it in via the links below and to the right.
