THE 2012 SEASON TAKES THE GREEN FLAG!

The first round of the Rolex Grand Am season got under way at Daytona International Speedway this weekend.

The 50th Anniversary 24 Hours was a success on every level. Spectator numbers, race entries, trash! And it was a great wekend for Robin as the Stevenson Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro came through this most gruelling of races and, along with the drivers and pit crew members, put up an impressive performace.

"Good result considering porsches too quick for us, but the team did a great job with the car and pitstops."

Qualifying 16th was not the start they wanted and Robin knew that tires would be a factor for everyone, but certainly during short runs for the Camaro. Within the first few laps of the green flag, however, Robin picked-off 5 spots and was firmly established in the top ten well before nightfall. Running as high as the lead GT car, by the time all the stops had played out over the 24 hours, a 4th position was a good solid result at the start of what is hoped to be an exciting season.
