Event Schedule | Tickets

TC America powered by Skip Barber Racing is heading into Rounds 3 and 4, hosted at Circuit of The Americas for CieloVision GT World Texas powered by Samsung. With the new 35-minute sprint format already delivering close, aggressive racing in the opening rounds at Sonoma Raceway, the intensity is only set to rise as the field takes on one of the most technical circuits on the calendar.

COTA also marks the return of the Hyundai N Trophy Cup, a championship-within-a-championship that will run its opening two rounds. With additional competition and prizes on the line layered into an already tightly contested grid, the stage is set for incredible battles to come as drivers and teams look to build momentum in both title fights.

Acura arrives in Texas looking to build on a strong start to the season, highlighted by Dean Lambros’ podium finish in Race 2 at Sonoma. With a three-car effort between Skip Barber Racing and Precision Racing LA, and Circuit of The Americas having suited the Acura platform in the past, the teams will be aiming to translate that performance into another strong weekend as the championship progresses.
