BRASELTON – Once Jordan Taylor saw his opportunity, he took it and never looked back. Taylor whipped past then-leader Christian Fittipaldi as the sun set at Road Atlanta on the 336th lap of the 17th annual Petit Le Mans, then used the next hour and a half to extend his lead at one point to 57 seconds to win in front of a packed crowd in Braselton. Taylor and his brother Ricky, who Jordan took over for to finish the final leg of the race, are the first Americans to win the Petit Le Mans overall, along with Italian Max Angelelli.
