AIM didn't get the qualifying performance they wanted, but the drivers are happy with the car and expect to move up during the long race.

AIM To Start Ninth In Utah
Confident of Improvement with 1000km Race Ahead

2007.09.15: AIM Autosport will start the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series season finale from ninth on the 21-car Daytona Prototype grid. Brian Frisselle of Lynchburg, Va., qualified the No. 61 Lexus-powered Riley Mk XI in two minutes 41.660 seconds on the 4.486-mile Miller Motorsports Park road course in Tooele, Utah. He will drive the first stint in the 1000-km race on Saturday, followed by his brother Burt and Mark Wilkins of Toronto.

"We wanted to be a little bit further up there because we'd been doing so well in practice, but second Lexus is not too bad. The only Lexus in front of us is the one in the hunt for the championship – on the pole, too. You always want to set your quickest time of the weekend in qualifying and we accomplished that," Brian Frisselle said. "I'm excited for this race – I know we've got a good race car underneath us. We've started weekends much worse than this and ended up with good results, so we could win the race tomorrow. Who knows?"
