McMillin had an official time of 6 hours 49 minutes and 52 seconds on the 428-mile racecourse.

His dad, Mark, won the Mint 32 years ago. Luke\u2019s cousin Andy also has a couple of Mint 400 wins on his resume.\r\n\r\n\u201cI can\u2019t believe it!\u201d said Luke McMillin. \u201cWe worked so hard.

We started out front, and never had any other battles we had to worry about. The only battle we had was what was in my mind, about who was in the back trying to sneak up on us.
