The Chevrolet Camaro ‘NASCAR’ modified to participate in the 24 Hours of Le Mans as part of Garage 56 is on track at the Road Atlanta layout. Mike Rockenfeller is the first driver to take the wheel of the Camaro followed by Action Express Racing.
Recall that Rocky made his NASCAR debut recently at Watkins Glen in a Chevrolet fielded by Spire Motorsports. With this Garage 56 2023, the objective is to get as close as possible to the GTEs in Sarthe next June.
