Nice job Stevenson Motorsports! We knew the Gen V Camaro could run with the best of them!

Spoiler here!

Looks like they were surrounded by a gang of Bimmers, with a Rustang in ??.

Race will airs on Speed TOMORROW 5/1, 1:00 PM ET, SPEED.

Looks like the the #9 Sunoco was XX, then something must have happened to the XX guys...

Thank you every one. I was a hard fought weekend with 2 engine changes on the 6 car. First engine was just timed out, the other had an over rev at 8400 and developed a miss. We started dead last and fought our way to a second place finish. It was a awsome job done by all the Crew and Drivers.
The 9 car developed a broken exhaust and cause the veh to burn way too much fuel and a loss in power.
I believe Mitchum had clutch issues.

A gang of Bimmers. So the big sloppy Camaro has some serious potential, didn't we all know that! and is Super Sexy to boot , Hence SS

GM has always done well.....i don't know why people put down GM, they do it with advanced older technology. Sometimes Proven engine beat out complex/trick state of the art engines....seems like more times than just luck or chance would have it.

Keep it simple. Thats not hard.

The sweetest victories have the hardest fights. Even if others think you came up short

Congrats on the podium finish for the #6 Camaro...can't wait to watch the race tomorrow!!!...

I just wish that the race was televised LIVE so I could have seen it unfold as it happened, not already knowing the outcome...

Great job guys!!!

It would be great if they would do this live, but believe me there will be plenty of excitement to watch today. They really did get a lot of coverage of the camaro's closer to the end of the race.
Honestly I can't wait to watch it myself. I am the Jack man for the 6 car unfortunately I had an accident during some practice pit stops just before the race and only got to see the last 20min of the race.
