The #10 Acura ARX-05 completed 38 laps, its best coming on Lap 31, resulting in a time of 1min34.592sec around the 3.56-mile Daytona road course. The car did suffer damage from an unidentified GTD runner near the start of the session, however.
Still, in the final half hour, Taylor proved quick enough to shade Dixon by 0.019sec, who in turn was a tenth faster than the Action Express Racing Cadillac of Mike Conway and the Meyer Shank Racing Acura of Helio Castroneves, the latter of which suffered a mechanical issue after just 18 laps and didn’t return to the track.
