Max Papis, No. 66:
"Today was a great learning curve for everyone. I'm really proud of the job that the crew did. It's definitely proof of our integrity and our will to succeed. We led a few laps and ran most of the time in the top three, four until we had the driveshaft problems. But I think finishing a 24-hour is an accomplishment and we'll take it from there."
Nic Jönsson, No. 67:
"I don't know exactly what happened, but the fuel pressure dropped when we were due to come in for our last pit stop for the race. I went to reserve in the Bus Stop chicane, and in NASCAR three and four I was seeing and smelling some minor smoke in the cockpit. When I came to where the speed limit starts in the pit lane, instantly the whole cockpit just filled up with smoke, and I just tried to stop as fast as possible and get out. It's a shame because I think we definitely had the speed and the talent on the team to be in the top five."
