2000 miles ✅
With 237 laps of the Circuit de la Sarthe under our belt, the
#NextGenG56
has blown past the 2,000 mile mark (or 3,218 kilometers, whatever those are).
That’s almost 3 and a half Coca-Cola 600s 🤯
3.5 hours in and we’re currently P44.
With the arrival of the rain, we pulled the car in for a quick adjustment, only losing a few seconds in the process.
Powering into the evening 💥
We’ll be thinking about this weekend for a LONG time 😁
Thank you for everyone’s support, whether you were at the track, back home, or elsewhere around the world!

It’s RACE DAY 🙌
Opening ceremonies and TV coverage on MOTORTREND in 🇺🇸 starts at 9am Eastern/3pm local, before we take the green flag at 10a/4p.
Where are you cheering us on from? We want to know 👇
The years of designing, the months and months of testing and tweaking, and the days of pageantry and preparation in Le Mans are done.
Now, it’s time to do what we do best: RACE.
👋
The first
#NextGen56
test is underway! This test car, run by
@AX_Racing
and driven by test driver
@mikerockenfell3
, will serve as the starting point for the development of our Garage 56 entry that will compete at Le Mans.
We think this guy knows a thing or two about developing a stock car…
Thanks
@JimmieJohnson
and
@TeamHendrick
for helping us shake down the
#NextGenG56
car ahead of some crucial tests over the next few months!
