CLP Motorsports’ All-Star Line Up for NASA 25 Hours of Thunderhill

Tyler McQuarrie, Tanner Foust, Marc Miller, Tom Dyer and Pat O’Keefe Team Up for a Victory Repeat in CLP Motorsports’ New Lamborghini Gallardo Super Trofeo

Pittsburg, Calif. – CLP Motorsports, winners of the 25-Hours of Thunderhill in their 2015 team debut in the NP01 Prototype Class, announced their impressive all-star driver line up for the 2016 NASA 25 Hours of Thunderhill today. The race, to be held December 2-4 in Willows, CA, is the longest endurance road race in North America. The CLP team includes 7-time 25 Hours of Thunderhill winner Tyler McQuarrie; national champion, world record holder & TV host, Tanner Foust; 2016 Petit LeMans winner Marc Miller; 2016 winner class A-6-AM of the 24 Hour Barcelona Tom Dyer and veteran racer/owner Pat O’Keefe, whose CLP Motorsports team won and set the bar for the all-new NP01 Prototype Class at Thunderhill last year. The team will go for a victory repeat in the ES Class with CLP Motorsports’ new Lamborghini Gallardo Super Trofeo.

“We’ve got a strong team of drivers– each one experienced and having what it takes to overcome the grueling challenge of the 25,” said Pat O’Keefe, President and CEO of CLP Motorsports. “We demonstrated great teamwork and stamina for the win last year– we’re looking forward to pushing the envelope again and stepping up to the ES Class.”

“I’m really looking forward to returning to the 25 Hours at Thunderhill in the Lamborghini Gallardo. I’m equally excited because of the strong driver line-up and overall great guys on the team,” said Marc Miller. “Tyler and I have been teammates for years and good friends and we had a great experience last year. We hope we can make a run at the overall win against some really tough competition.”

“I’m stoked and looking forward to finishing strong,” said Tyler McQuarrie, who returns to Thunderhill for an 8th win. “Wrapping up the #RaceEverything campaign at Thunderhill — the last major race of the year– with a great team is an awesome way to finish.”

“I’m elated to be teaming up with CLP this year,” said Tanner Foust. “There’s no doubt we’ll be making a significant impact with such a determined force. It’s going to be an interesting race for sure.”

“I’m thrilled to be joining my friends at the CLP Motorsports in this year’s NASA 25 Hours of Thunderhill,” said Tom Dyer. “Last year was a great time and we achieved an excellent result together. I’m stoked they’re doing it again and asked me back to be a part of their effort this year. Pat and Tyler have created a great team where their motto has been “Race Everything!” which I think is super cool and I’m completely envious! I can’t think of a better way to cap off the 2016 racing season than to join CLP and take another stab at seeking glory in the NASA 25 Hours of Thunderhill.”

Think back to the early era of Trans Am, when Camaros were running down the best on the road courses of North America. Nowadays, Trans Am race cars are very modern, tube-chassis cars. However, what if we could take the classic ‘60s style that we love and modernize it underneath to make what could have been the ultimate Trans Am Camaro? You’re pretty much describing the CLP Motorsports ’67 Camaro driven by Pat O’Keefe.
