You folks at the track must be going nuts.

Even at home, we are jumping and screaming.

Still can't believe these cars can be so close after 23.75 hours. Overall win is amazing also.

Keep it going Dirk. Really don't want to lose to a Frenchman in a German car!

Dirk is a stud. That Porsche is faster right now, but the driver isn't.

All right!

Given the closeness these days, that was a significant victory.

Great job, and hopefully an indicator for the rest of the year on both sides of the Atlantic.

All of you at Daytona do some celebrating for us couch potatoes.

Great, great stuff.

Fantastic job by Ford Engineering, drivers and managers. When you want something hard enough, you can get it.
