2nd in class, 3rd place finish overall!
The 25 Hours of Thunderhill is the most demanding and grueling road race on the planet, and Rich M. with his Team PDG (Prototype Development Group) has been a regular at this event for more than a decade. This year, Rich scored a 3rd place podium finish with his Factory Five GTM race car, and a 2nd place in class! Rich ran his fastest lap time ever, and ran more laps than ever in this epic race being bested only by a 996 ALMS Porsche and a full-race Radical! To underscore this accomplishment, Rich is running against professional American Le Mans and Grand AM caliber teams.
Congratulations to the entire Team PDG for their best-ever 25 Hours finish! The car looks great in its new paint job, and everyone should be super proud of their accomplishment.
