The victory was Corvette Racing's 11th straight win in ALMS competition and the team's 32nd 1-2 finish since 2001. "As I said when we arrived here, I think Corvette Racing is the best prepared team in the series," said program manager Doug Fehan. "Tonight's result showed that all of our hard work, preparation and pre-race analysis produced a setup that could get the job done - and the drivers didn't put a wheel wrong all race."
