2013 Riley MkXXVI Gen 3 Daytona Prototype

Chassis AA010

The ultimate evolution of the Daytona Prototype era.

For those who understand the significance of Grand-Am and early IMSA prototype racing, the Riley MkXXVI Gen 3 represents the final and most refined chapter of the legendary Riley Daytona Prototype platform. Offered here is Chassis AA010 — a genuine 2013 Generation 3 Riley BMW with documented professional race history, celebrity drivers, and front-running historic race preparation.

Unlike earlier Daytona Prototypes, the Gen 3 cars were a true clean-sheet redesign. The smaller greenhouse, dramatically improved aerodynamics, and sleek modern bodywork transformed the platform both visually and competitively while maintaining the durability and mechanical simplicity that made Riley dominant for over a decade.

Chassis AA010 carries an exceptional pedigree. Campaigned by the renowned Starworks Motorsport operation during their transition to BMW power, this chassis achieved immediate success, highlighted by an outright victory at Road America driven by future Formula 1 winner Brendon Hartley and Scott Mayer.

Between 2013 and 2015, AA010 was piloted by an impressive roster of professional drivers including:

  • Rubens Barrichello
  • Brendon Hartley
  • Ryan Hunter-Reay
  • Ryan Dalziel
  • Enzo Potolicchio
  • Scott Mayer

Following its time with Starworks, the car later competed with championship-winning Alegra Motorsports during their 2016 Twelve Hours of Sebring campaign.

Today, AA010 is presented in fully race-prepared condition following meticulous rebuilding, sorting, and ongoing maintenance by Hudson Historics / RBN Motorsports for competition in Historic Sportscar Racing (HSR), where it has proven to be a consistent front-runner and crowd favorite thanks to its unmistakable BMW V8 soundtrack, aggressive styling, and outright pace.

Power comes from a Dinan-built BMW S62 5.0L V8 producing approximately 610 horsepower, delivering a raw and visceral driving experience that perfectly captures the spirit of prototype racing’s golden era.

Importantly for modern historic competition, the car has been comprehensively updated with current safety systems and a brand-new fuel cell, making it compliant and ready for competition with sanctioning bodies worldwide.

Whether destined for HSR, Masters Endurance Legends, private testing, or a premier motorsport collection, this Riley offers the rare combination of authentic professional race history, competitive capability, and turnkey readiness.

Even more impressive, the car is accompanied by an extensive spares package including spare engines, gearboxes, suspension components, bodywork, and additional support equipment — making this a true arrive-and-drive opportunity for the next owner.

Opportunities to acquire a genuine Generation 3 Daytona Prototype with this level of provenance, preparation, and performance are exceptionally rare.

This is not simply a race car — it is one of the definitive prototypes of its era.
