SunTrust Racing topped Friday morning's damp practice at Daytona, as teams gear up for the 50th Rolex 24 at Daytona.

The No. 10 Corvette DP of Ryan Briscoe turned a best time of 2:01.241, in a 45-minute session that only saw three Daytona Prototypes set times.

Eleven GT cars took to the 3.56-mile circuit, with the pole-sitting Brumos Racing Porsche of Marc Lieb coming out on top, thanks to a 2:04.859 lap time.

Most teams remained in the garage undergoing rebuilds following yesterday's practice and qualifying sessions.

Conditions were overcast with gusty winds, with a chance of rain hitting later this morning.

A final one-hour practice is scheduled for 11 a.m. ET.

RESULTS: Practice 4
