The Bryan Herta Autosport IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge team is taking legal action against a former client for alleged breach of contract, specifically non-payment for a substantial sum of money. The lawsuit was filed in Deily Motorsports LLC’s home state of Oklahoma, targeting owner Robert Deily for their failure to adhere to terms of a loan agreement involving a Hyundai Elantra N TCR. Deily Motorsports utilized vehicles lent by BHA for their TCR efforts, but according to the complaint, failed to return the race vehicle in the same condition it was received, leading to damages and missing components. BHA is seeking a judgment of $110,704.26 in damages, based on unpaid invoices for repairs and labor conducted on the vehicle. Despite the legal dispute, BHA continues to play a significant role in Hyundai’s racing operations in the Americas, providing import, distribution, parts, and technical support services. Deily Motorsports, now deemed an inactive corporation, contested a portion of the Michelin Pilot Challenge series in 2023 with BHA’s loaned vehicle, returning it after their last race in June 2024, where they participated with an Audi RS3 LMS TCR.
