Being behind the wheel drives T.O.'s Long
If Patrick Long could be in two places at the same time this weekend, he would. Long will be racing in the Rolex 24 at Daytona International Speedway in Florida, but he also has a guaranteed starting spot in the NASCAR Toyota All-Star Showdown in Irwindale.
