Successful Ginetta team RacingSupport have announced a two-car entry into the new Ginetta one-make class within the 2026 SRO GT America championship, with David Lecko their first confirmed driver.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new chapter in Ginetta\u2019s growth within the North American market this year sees the introduction of a dedicated one-make \u2018spec\u2019 series<\/a> for Ginetta G56 GTP8\u2019s within SRO GT America, building on the recent success of the Ginetta Challenge series in the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RacingSupport\u00a0have established themselves as one of the most successful teams in the Ginetta Challenge. They have secured more podium finishes than anyone else with the Ginetta G56 GTA model. They will now bring that experience to the SRO GT America grid with their V8-powered G56 GTP8\u2019s.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

David Lecko will move up the Ginetta ladder to pilot the\u00a0DealMachine\u00a0supported #89 Ginetta G56 GTP8<\/a> this season. The driver of the sister car will be announced in due course.\u00a0Lecko\u00a0will begin a testing programme in the new GTP8 in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

David Lecko:\u00a0<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Ginetta ladder prepared me for this step into GT America. I\u2019m excited to grow, compete, and evolve at the next level.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mark Swain,\u00a0Ginetta North America President:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to be moving into the GT America paddock with the GTP8. We\u00a0are also extremely proud to have competitors like\u00a0RacingSupport\u00a0and\u00a0David Lecko move up the ladder from track days to Ginetta Challenge and now a National campaign in GT America.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2026 SRO GT America season begins\u00a0at Sonoma Raceway next month (27-29 March). A\u00a0seven-event calendar takes in some of the most iconic circuits in North America. Racers will tackle Sebring International Raceway, Road America and Indianapolis Motor Speedway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each SRO GT America race weekend will feature a pair of 40-minute races. Every race will be streamed\u00a0live and free\u00a0globally\u00a0on the\u00a0GT World YouTube channel<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
