Wayne Taylor Racing Sweeps Florida at Sebring's Famously Abusive Racetrack
Ricky Taylor pulled away from Joao Barbosa and gave Wayne Taylor Racing and Cadillac a victory during 36 Hours of Florida at Sebring Raceway. Taylor pushed his Konica Minolta-sponsored No. 10 Cadillac DPi-V.R to a 13.6 second win over Barbosa’s Action Express-backed entry, following a long mid-race battle between the two Cadillacs.
Much of the race was a recreation of the prototype duel between the Taylor family and Mustang Sampling Racing at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. However, with three hours to go at Sebring, Jordan Taylor passed Filipe Albuquerque for the lead in dense traffic and built up a sizable gap. Calling in the No. 10 Cadillac to pit and swap drivers in the final hour, just moments before the race’s final course caution, resulted in Ricky Taylor maintaining a commanding lead for the remainder of the event.

“I want a car,” I told Derek, “with a manual transmission. To take to Sebring. For the TrackGuys thing.”
“I’ll see what I can do,” the man said. And he did.
Manual transmission.
Turbocharged.
Cute-ute.
Subcompact cute-ute.
Be careful what you wish for, right?
