June 1, 2013 (DETROIT, Mich.) The breakthrough victory was just a few weeks ago at Road Atlanta. Now, the Mazda team has backed it up with another win, this time in the Motor City. Joel Miller and Tristan Nunez drove the #00 Visit Florida Racing SKYACTIV-D Clean Diesel Mazda6 to the GRAND-AM GX class win after Miller made the pass for the win following a late-race yellow.

SpeedSource teammates Sylvain Tremblay and Tom Long finishing third in their #70 Mazda6. Just as it had been in Georgia, it was a three-way battle for most of the race with a Porsche Cayman splitting the two Mazdas.

The all-new SKYACTIV-D Clean Diesel powerplant in the all-new Mazda6 is a true production-based engine, 51% stock by parts count, and 63% stock by weight. Mazda chose this path as it is the most honest way to demonstrate the quality, durability, and reliability of its cars.

John M. Doonan, Director, Mazda Motorsports, Mazda North American Operations:
“I can't thank the engineers at both Mazda and SpeedSource enough for the many late nights getting us to this amazing place where we have scored our second win in only our fifth race. I think the team has earned some Florida vacation time, but with races coming up at Mid-Ohio and Watkins Glen, those vacations may need to wait.”

Sylvain Tremblay, Owner, SpeedSource Engineering:
“Our second win was another leap forward in terms of our overall program development. This also demonstrates why we have two cars - to make sure our development is that much faster, and to double our chances of a win. Our #70 car had the pole, led, and set the fastest race lap until a minor electrical gremlin dropped us to third.”
