The two-day session is scheduled for Thursday and Friday, January 9 and 10, with Saturday, January 11 reserved as a rain date.
Castroneves will pilot the No. 82 Chevrolet prepared by Pinnacle Racing Group, the team that led Connor Zilisch to five wins in the ARCA Menards Series in 2024.

He has four previous starts on the 2.5-mile Daytona International Speedway oval, all in the International Race of Champions, with a best finish of sixth in 2004.
Legge, 44, from Guilford, England, has made her name racing both open wheel cars and sports cars on both sides of the Atlantic. She made seven NTT Data IndyCar starts in 2024 driving for Dale Coyne Racing with a best finish of 15th at The Milwaukee Mile. Legge has four IMSA WeatherTech Sportscar Championship victories, winning in the GT3 class at Belle Isle and Watkins Glen in 2017 and Belle Isle and Laguna Seca in 2018. She has a total of eleven podium finishes in 92 career series starts. Legge will pilot the No. 23 Chevrolet prepared by Joe Farre’s SPS Racing which won the ARCA Menards Series West race at Sonoma Raceway with Sam Mayer and will compete for the ARCA Menards Series East championship in 2025 with Tyler Reif driving.
Reigning ARCA Menards Series Bounty Rookie of the Year Lavar Scott leads the brigade of series regulars into Daytona. He will be joined by highly touted rookie Isabella Robusto, fellow championship contender Lawless Alan, Canadian youngster Chase Pinsonneault, and 2024 Talladega winner Jake Finch out of the Ventutrini Motorsports stable, Brent Crews, Gio Ruggiero, and William Sawalich for Joe Gibbs Racing, Nitro Motorsports drivers Amber Balcaen, Thad Moffitt, and Gavan Boeschele, fan favorite Andy Jankowiak, CARS Tour champion Brenden Queen, Atlantic coast short track veteran Jason Kitzmiller, West Coast late model star and 2024 ARCA Menards Series West winner Kole Raz, and over 60 more drivers.
