Brian Frisselle - No. 61 AIM Autosport Ford Riley
Teamed with Andrew Ranger and Colin Braun, teammates Brian Frisselle and Mark Wilkins made up the youngest Rolex Series Daytona Prototype team. A good start was hindered by contact, traffic and tire issues to finish a disappointing 19th. The team regrouped and had three starting-row qualifying positions and four top-8 finishes. The duo scored their best finish of the season at Mid-Ohio. Late race tire problems prevented a podium finish.
Current Driver Point Standings: T-13th (153 points)
Burt Frisselle - No. 47 Doran Racing Ford Dallara
After starting the season with Michael Shank Racing and drivers Ian James, John Pew and AJ Allmendinger and finishing in the top-10 after disappointing mechanical issues, Burt moved to the No. 47 Doran Racing Ford Dallara with Gabriele Gardel where they debuted the Dallara chassis at Mexico City with a top-10 finish. Contact and mechanical issues have hindered the team’s and chassis’ development. After Gardel returned to Europe, Ricky Taylor joined the team at Mid-Ohio where they scored the best finish of the season with a seventh place finish.
