Thanks guys! The race was harder this year in that people were running really fast from the start. It was better in that there was a lot more clean driving. Once again, the victory belongs to the whole team - crew & drivers. Everyone was incredibly important & did a great job.

If you ever get a chance to go to the 25 hour, you should check out PDQ's pit stop and crew. They are impeccable as a team, I honestly am not surprised that they won again. Not only did they do awesome for themselves, but i bet you the team probably helped other teams in need as well. (like us last year) Kudos x 1,000,000.

Good job by Mike and the entire crew for winning and having the preparation of a top-notch pro race team. And, thanks for the pizza Friday night. It was cool hangin' wit Jimmy, Charlie, Mike, and the rest of the PDQ crew.

Re: Congradulations to PDQ Motorsports (BrianZ)
I had the pleasure of driving with Mike's team this year (Mike used to crew for our Honda team) and to see where he is now from where he was a few years ago (starting out) is incredible...the amount and level of PREPARATION Mike and his crew had done and maintained throughout the race was staggering...I'm pretty sure that there were several pro or semi-pro teams there who underestimated the "little civic" and didn't realize that PDQ was probably as or more prepared than any team has ever been to undertake a 25 hour race.
Mike learned a long time ago that you can't count on luck...you have to make your own luck by considering every single detail and having a plan and a solution for "what if". They did a fuel stop, drove the car (with a 5MPH paddock speed limit) back to the trailer, jacked it up...put stands under it, changed all four tires and brake pads, dropped it, did a driver change and drove it back out of the paddock at 5MPH and back to the track in SEVEN MINUTES.
All Mike needs is someone to lend him a faster Honda and the overall would be his (hint hint someone out there). Not to be un-PC but we were only a lap away from being ahead of both the factory Si's which were in the class above us.
Also says a lot about Mike as a person that this many people would gladly come and help. Was an incredibly fun time and one of, if not the best racing weekends I ever had.

My first experience running with PDQ team. I must say I'm thoroughly impressed. Mike know how to run a winning team. The race was flawless. Not one penalty, not one broken parts, not one of course excursion.
It was a privilege to be involved with such a team.
