Forte Racing will embark on its maiden IMSA WeatherTech Sportscar Championship season with the No. 78 Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2.
The California-based sportscar team is the brainchild of its Italian and American founders, and has secured title backing with Arrow Electronics, Inc.
Operations will be led by veteran open-wheel and sportscar team owner Shane Seneviratne and his proven championship-winning infrastructure at US RaceTronics.
Arrow Electronics and USRT have seen repeated success in the Lamborghini Super Trofeo series, making the step towards the IMSA GT3 paddock a natural progression. The team is bi-costal with operations already established in both California and North Carolina.
For the 2023 campaign, Forte Racing will also be supported by two key partners, North American retail automotive and motorsport leaders O’Gara and Change Racing. O’Gara is the largest Lamborghini retailer in the world while Change Racing has already won numerous Super Trofeo and IMSA races and titles.
“As Lamborghini Squadra Corse we are glad to welcome in GTD the team Forte, the crew is well known in our family coming from successful seasons in our Lamborghini SuperTrofeo North America, together with our junior and factory drivers involved with Forte, we are ready for this new challenge” said Giorgio Sanna, Motorsport Director for Lamborghini Squadra Corse.
The official GT3 driver lineup will be announced at the Roar Before The Rolex 24, January 20-22.
