Amazing. Definitely not iPhone pics! Love the glowing brake discs. Some of those are suitable for framing.

Nice! These are way better than the blurry garbage that I've seen posted elsewhere.

Camera is a Nikon D500. Lenses are the 16-80mm 2.8-4.0 VR kit lens and a AFS 80-400mm 4.5-5.6 VR.

Yeah, IMSA does a great job and allows all the spectators down onto the grid before all the races. Daytona has particularly large area in the trioval for all the fans to hang out so it really is a party atmosphere. I was walking on the track to the grandstands when I took that pic looking into Turn 1.
