Lot 165 | 2009 PORSCHE CAYMAN GX.R HISTORIC RACE CAR This is far from your normal Porsche Cayman. The Rolex Daytona 24 Hours has been among the few pinnacles of motorsport racing events since 1962. Drivers such as Dan Gurney, Mark Donohue, Hurley Haywood, Peter Gregg, and Ken Miles have been among this legendary race’s long list of competitors. For over 60 years, the 24 Hours of Daytona has been among the “Big Three” in endurance racing alongside the 24 Hours du Mans and the 12 Hours of Sebring. In 2013, the GX class was introduced due to the merger of the American Le Mans Series and the Grand American Rolex Sports Car Series. The GX class was deemed close enough in performance to the GT Daytona class but was focused on sustainability in racing. This was the last year privateer racing teams were allowed in the 24 Hours of Daytona.
