IMSA has placed its WeatherTech SportsCar Championship GTP field in a special impound after the TireRack.com Battle On The Bricks endurance race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for extensive technical inspections in “as raced” condition. This initiative, led by key IMSA officials such as Eric Haverson and Simon Hodgson, aims to ensure compliance with homologation regulations before the season finale at Motul Petit Le Mans in October. Selected GTP cars were impounded for post-race technical inspection through Monday and Tuesday, with results remaining provisional until completed. The process includes dimensional accuracy checks, drivetrain teardown, and scrutiny of control arm part numbers to guarantee fair competition and compliance. Any queries will be sent to the NASCAR R&D Center for further investigation in collaboration with NASCAR.
