Random Vandals Racing Returns To Pilot Challenge

CONCORD, N.C. — Random Vandals Racing returns to the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge series for the full season in 2024 with Kenton Koch and Paul Sparta, piloting the No. 92 Vbrick Systems BMW Motorsport M4 GT4 in the GS class.

Additionally, Team ACP – Tangerine, a longtime international BMW sportscar team, will partner with RVR for select races in both IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge (No. 94 GS class) and VP Racing SportsCar Challenge (No. 9 GSX class) as Team ACP by Random Vandals.

All three cars will make their debut at the Daytona Roar Before the Rolex 24 on Jan. 19. The No. 94 Team ACP by Random Vandals GS class M4 will have Ken Goldberg, Catesby Jones and veteran Terry Borcheller behind the wheel for the 4-hour BMW M Endurance Challenge at Daytona.

Nathan Martin makes his professional racing debut in the No. 9 Team ACP by Random Vandals M4 in GSX class of the VP Racing SportsCar Challenge.

“2024 marks a major expansion for Random Vandals and a huge raccoon family welcome to Team ACP,” said RVR Team Principal Paul Sparta. “In 2023, we invested across the organization to create a cohesive team with top driving, engineering, and technical talent. We proved we can run consistently at the top of the field in multiple series. This year, we intend to compete for a championship and multiple race wins. We couldn’t do it without the tremendous partnership of BMW Motorsport. The farther we go, the harder it gets, but this team loves the challenge and the process.”

“Last year’s foray in the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge left us with some great experience to build on! We grew so much as a team and Paul was able to take another leap as a driver,” said Kenton Koch, co-driver of the No. 92 Vbrick Systems BMW M4 GT4. “I’m super excited to partner with him again and make a run at the full season championship with Random Vandals after some success last year. I have a good feeling about 2024 and can’t wait for Daytona to get here.”

“Team ACP is extremely happy to partner with Random Vandals for our IMSA effort,” said Catesby Jones, CEO of Team ACP-Tangerine. “We are both dedicated BMW teams, and we’ll be stronger together as we take this step into IMSA. We can’t wait to get to Daytona.”
