Rick Hendrick, owner of Hendrick Motorsports did confirm one thing though, “It’s going to be expensive.”
Garage 56 was introduced in 2012 as a special single-entry class reserved for innovative cars. It allows for the testing of new technologies and innovation without taking away the spot of a car from the traditional starting grid. The invitations don’t officially come out until January. And there are politics involved in what’s allowed. ACO doesn’t want the car to be better than traditional entries, particularly in the top classes.
