Riley MkXI Daytona Prototype
This is the world's only Aston Martin powered Daytona Prototype.
This racecar is an endurance prototype- it is an endurance car because it runs in long distance events (such as the 24 Hours
of Daytona) and it is classified as a prototype because it is not a production based vehicle. These cars race in the
Grand American Road Racing Association's Rolex Sports Car Series. This car runs a 4.7 liter V-8 engine and puts out
approximately 550 horsepower and it goes as well as it looks! We are currently putting together a program with
our racing partners so that we can run the 2012 Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona with the 3 main drivers being myself, my older brother
Adam, and my dad Rick. This is very special for us to be able to drive together and should be a great event (assuming
the other Mancuso's don't mind being slower than the baby in the family)! In the meantime we will campaign
this car in several Vintage Events at Road America. Come by and see the world's only Aston Martin-powered Daytona Prototype!!
