Along with teammate Alex Riberas, the pair earned their way to the top of an action-packed and disrupted six-hour race hit with heavy rain in the latter half. The GTD classes remained tight and close throughout, culminating in an intense sprint to the finish between Gunn and #4 Corvette driver Tommy Milner. The race start for the GTD and GTD Pro classes was smooth with little position changes until the second full-course caution after a collision between two cars. Jack Hawksworth in the #14 GTD Pro Vasser Sullivan Lexus took the lead in the race, while the #64 Mustang held fifth place in the GTD Pro class. Brake issues affected both the #65 Ford Mustang and #3 Corvette teams, leading to unscheduled pit stops for repairs. The threat of rain loomed as a third caution period brought the GTD and GTD Pro contenders back together before more incidents unfolded, resulting in spins and penalties for several competitors. A fourth caution was triggered by a significant crash involving the #55 Proton Competition Ford Mustang and the #27 Heart of Racing Aston Martin, leading to both cars retiring from the race.
