Allmendinger hails ‘drive of his life’

AJ Allmendinger believes that he produced the best drive of his life to anchor Michael Shank Racing to victory at the Daytona 24 Hours. The NASCAR regular, who shared his Riley-Ford with Justin Wilson, Oswaldo Negri Jr and John Pew at the 50th anniversary running of the Florida enduro, was in contention for the win throughout the race. Allmendinger drove the final three hours of the race under constant pressure from Ryan Dalziel's pole-sitting Starworks Riley-Ford as the gap between the pair fluctuated between three and 11 seconds due to a combination of traffic and caution periods
