Default 350Z's at Daytona this weekend...with Playboy Bunnies!

Unitech Racing to Chase the Grand Sport Title with a New Team Name and Fresh Driver Lineup

Unitech Racing’s vehicles and paddock will be sporting a voluptuous new look at the Grand-Am Cup 200 at Daytona this weekend, and not because of any changes to the Z’s curvaceous fenders. Unitech is proud to announce that Playboy Magazine has joined the team as the primary sponsor for 2006, providing a new team name (Playboy Racing), and various types of support for the Bunny-liveried racecars.

With the retirement of Schuitemaker Motorsports’ 350Z’s from competition in the Grand Sport class this year, Nissan Motorsports will rest their hopes for victory on Playboy Racing. With two years of development on the cars, a cohesive crew, and a stellar driver lineup, Playboy Racing should be able to deliver. Drivers Blake Rosser of Henderson Nevada and David Murry of Cumming Georgia will resume piloting duties in 2006, while Tommy Constantine of Scottsdale AZ and Mike Borkowski of Miami FL will strap in for their first taste of competitive action in the Playboy Z’s. These outstanding drivers will strive to repeat the race-winning performances of prior years, beginning with the season opener at Daytona on January 27, 2006.

Unitech will also look for continued support from StopTech Brake Systems, Motec, Sakata Motorsport Electronics, and KONI/Truechoice.

Watch for new developments and the team’s progress at www.unitechracing.com. Follow the races at www.grandamerican.com Zippo Live Timing and Scoring. Check www.speedtv.com for broadcast information. Focusing solely on the cars should be a tall order in the pits this season!





If anybody is going to Daytona, you might want to stop by Playboy Racing's pits. They will have Playmates signing posters there.

Hopefully I can get out of class early enough to make it to the 200. I just want a poster with the bunnies and a car in it.

How do you get tickets for this? I've been searching the track's website, but the only tickets available online are for the 28th-29th, and I'd rather go on the 27th to see this race... Do you just have to buy them at the track or something?

The tickets are usually good for the whole weekend. My tickets are at least. Just call the ticket booth they will help you out. When I weant to the Brumos race last year I think you could do day of tickets for like $15. You don't get a super cool ticket stub though.

I still havn't gotten over the whole split yet between the two sports car sanctioning bodies. I remember when all the cars that are at Sebring were together with all the cars at Daytona. It made for a huge field of competition. Even though the DP class has become pretty large I still miss the bobble heads in the SP cars going around Nascar 3 and 4. You could pretty much see the driver from the ground it was awesome.

Thats great news. I wish them luck!

Found out that there's another Playboy car running in the 24 hour in DP. #19, which qualified 7th!!!

And the #29 350Z of Extreme Motorsport is running in GT in the Rolex.
