J.C. France takes victory in NASCAR Classic race at Le Mans

J.C. France, grandson of NASCAR founder Bill France Sr., won the NASCAR Classic race at Le Mans on July 5. He drove a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro wrapped in the design of the Garage 56 entry. The race was marred by significant mechanical issues, impacting the leading competitors Andrew Jordan, Dave Roberts, and Kurt Busch. Jordan, who was leading, had to retire on the final lap, paving the way for France’s victory. The event featured several spins and mechanical failures, contributing to the attrition-filled race. The HSR NASCAR Classic will continue with additional races scheduled later today.
