Amazing job Parker Kligerman, Landon Cassill, Garrett Smithley, and Byron Daley for wheeling this car to the end for P6 at the 24 Hours of Nurburgring. Glad to be able to bring “Nemesis” home”.

This was Landon’s and Garrett’s first time in the car and on the track. Landon ran the car all day to get his road license up to qualify and then had about two hours to learn it.

Landon tweeted, “Josh was the voice in each of our ears for 24 hours. I think he got an hour of sleep. He called all of our strategy and kept the driver lineup in order and kept us calm when we drove it off the road.”
