Muscle Milk Pickett Racing (formerly known as Muscle Milk Motorsports and Muscle Milk Team Cytosport) was a motorsports group from Indianapolis, Indiana. The team was founded in 2007 by CytoSport co-founder and former IMSA GT Championship driver Greg Pickett. Since 2007, Pickett's team has competed in the United SportsCar Championship, the American Le Mans Series, the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the IMSA GT3 Cup Challenge. The team officially closed in 2014.
In 2007, the team boss bought a Lola B06/10 with an AER four litre twin-turbo V8 to be driven by Greg Pickett and former NASCAR and Trans-Am driver Klaus Graf. The #06 car was scheduled to make its debut in the third round of the ALMS season at the Grand Prix of Long Beach. The car did not start the race. The team went on to finish third in class at Mid Ohio and Road America. Joined by Memo Gidley, they finished third in class at Petit Le Mans and secured fourth place in the LMP1 championship.
The 2009 season saw Cytosport return to the American Le Mans Series. Greg Pickett bought a Porsche RS Spyder formerly run by the Dyson Racing team to run in the LMP2 class. Pickett and Graf debuted the car in the 6th round of the season at Mid Ohio where they finished 4th overall and 2nd in class. The race at Petit Le Mans saw Porsche factory driver Sascha Maassen join the team. After 184 laps the race was red flagged due to heavy rain. Despite spinning out in the slick conditions, the team finished 22nd overall and third in class. Having not driven the car due to the races early conclusion, Greg Pickett did not earn points for the race. At the last round of the season at Laguna Seca the team qualified the car on pole, giving the team 4 pole positions in the last four races. Klaus Graf finished fifth and Greg Pickett eighth in the drivers championship.
