IMSA teams preparing for new and upscaled programs in 2024
As the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season comes to a close, teams such as Wayne Taylor Racing and Andretti Autosport are already making preparations for their expanded programs in 2024. Wayne Taylor Racing is set to operate two Acura ARX-06 GTP cars next season and is confident in their progress, having received an overwhelming response to their social media ad for new team members. AWA Racing is making the transition from LMP3 to GTD with two Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.Rs and recently participated in a test at Road America to familiarize themselves with the new cars. They anticipate their first test with the GTD program at Sebring in two months’ time. With the increase in races from six or seven to ten weekends, scaling up to the GTD program will require minimal changes in procedures and equipment for AWA Racing. In the LMP2 category, some teams are making progress while others face challenges. United Autosports has established its new home in JR III’s shop in North Carolina and Sean Creech Motorsport is waiting for parts and spares to arrive before they can begin their work with the Ligier JS P217. Both teams expect to meet their testing schedules.
