That&#8217;s right, the Mazdas in the Grand-Am class at the 24 Hours of Daytona won&#8217;t be rotary coupes; this year everyone will be looking at the taillights of a Mazda 6 with a new Skyactiv diesel.

The #25 Freedom Autosport car will be painted bright green with a giant eagle\u2019s head graphic, the #00 Visit Florida Racing\/SpeedSource\/Yellow Dragon car will be yellow and orange, and the #70 SpeedSource car will be red and black.<\/p>\n<p>The 24 Hours of Daytona starts January 26th at noon PST.
