Garage 56's NASCAR entry overcomes drama to complete Le Mans 24.
The No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 completed the Le Mans 24-hour endurance race despite encountering a major mechanical issue after 20 hours of racing. The team spent over an hour in the garage changing the gearbox but managed to return to the race and finish 39th overall, completing 285 laps. Jenson Button and Jimmie Johnson each ran 97 laps, while Mike Rockenfeller was behind the wheel for 91 laps. Button praised the team for their hard work in producing an endurance car from a Cup car.
