Cars racing Daytona and Le Mans are quite different, most certainly because the two races are governed by different regulatory bodies. While the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (A. C. O.) makes the rules at Le Mans, Daytona is regulated by the Grand American Road Racing Association, or Grand-Am. While Le Mans has four categories – LM P1, LM P2, LM GT1 and LM GT2, Daytona has only two: Daytona Prototypes and GT. Many Le Mans drivers are also maintaining a Daytona presence. Krohn Racing is competing in the Daytona Prototype category on a Ford / Lola and Tracy Krohn is listed as a driver. Other Le Mans teams and drivers racing at Daytona are Alex Job Racing and Patrick Dempsey’s Dempsey Racing.
