Robert Ryan should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

This year, the Grand-Am sanctioning body, outlawed all Rotary Engine Powered Race cars at the Daytona Rolex 24 Hour Race. Section 3-1.6 Rotary engines are not allowed (Rolex Series only). We take this as another one of those misguided and ignorant decisions, by rules makers and sanctioning bodies that do not and care not to understand the Rotary power plant. The Rotary engine has been a mainstay of endurance sports car racing around the world, for 3 decades. Endurance racing is one of the last great places where the inherent values of the Rotary Engine can still shine through, at a world class level of competition, although it's been severely regulated/restricted of late.
