So glad to see my boys at Action Express succeed again after a lean time in the last year. This new GTP platform and the new Cadillac V Series R have helped us pull through once again, taking yet another Sebring victory for Pipo Derani, Alexander Sims, and Jack Aitken. A credit to the whole team, including the drivers, the pit crew, and our ownership and management staff. Team boss Bob Johnson, managers Gary Nelson and Tim Keene, driver coach and advisor Peter Baron, and all of the people who are a part of this effort. Kudos to each and every one of you for putting us back in victory lane and showing that we are a force to be reckoned with. Once again, for other teams out there, prepare to see a red Cadillac be a contender.
The celebrations I am sure are now complete, as we must focus forward as always in racing and prepare to meet and exceed more challenges, including the first sprint race of the year on the street circuit, the legendary street circuit at Long Beach, California, in mid-April. That will be our next challenge and we can Expect to Win, there. Action Express has had much past success in recent years at Long Beach and this year should be no different as the GTP cars and teams tackle a sprint event for the first time ever. April 15th is the date of the race. It will be a good one I am sure! Forza Action Express! This is our time and we will see what happens. Even in victory, the focus now is on the next race. In racing, you look back on the memories, the great history and rich tradition of the sport and the art of endurance sports car racing. At the same time, as in any form of motor racing, moving forward is the objective.
But, if the saying is true that you are as good as your last race, that seems to mean good odds going into the first sprint race of the year for Action Express headed to Long Beach. We shall see what happens when it comes around.
