With the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona less than two months away, Trackhouse Racing announced today it will be competing in the Florida race with a new partner, TF Sport, in a Corvette Z06 GT3.R.
The race team will be known as “Trackhouse by TF Sport.”

“Participating in the Rolex 24 has been a dream since the inception of Trackhouse Racing,” Trackhouse owner and founder Justin Marks said.
“We wanted to make sure we could enter with a top-notch partner in Chevy and TF Sport, as well as a driver lineup that could compete for the victory. We feel like this group we have put together can compete for the trophy.”

The entry into the GT Daytona (GTD) Pro class for the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship will mark Trackhouse’s first attempt in that series, after successfully competing in NASCAR Cup Series since 2021 and the MotoGP motorcycle series in 2024.

Drivers in the No. 91 Corvette at the Rolex 24 at Daytona, slated for January 25-26, will be Trackhouse NASCAR drivers Shane van Gisbergen and Connor Zilisch, joining Indycar star Scott McLaughlin and veteran sports car racer Ben Keating.

They’re familiar faces in the racing world, with Van Gisbergen taking 80 wins and 47 pole positions, along with winning the Supercars Championships three times. He’s also the first driver since Johnny Rutherford in 1963 to debut with a win in the Cup Series.

Meanwhile, Zilisch, just 18 years old, captured the LMP2 class at the Rolex 24 this year and also took victories at the 12 Hours of Sebring, Watkins Glen International, and several ARCA and CARS Tour events.

McLaughlin earned back-to-back-to-back Supercars titles from 2018-20 and has taken seven wins in the INDYCAR Series since 2021.
He earned five poles this year, including the fastest four-lap qualifying speed in the history of the Indy 500.

Keating, who owns 30 car dealerships in Texas, has several wins under his belt, including the Rolex 24 in the GTD class in 2015, the IMSA Championship in LMP2 in 2021 and 2023, and the 24 Hours of LeMans in 2022 with TF Sport and in 2023 with Corvette.
He’s also the 2022 and 2023 WEC World Champion.
“We set out to become an international company with a global brand,” Marks said, “and we took a big step in 2024 adding MotoGP.

Today marks another step as Trackhouse enters one of the most prestigious motorsports races in the world with two Americans (Zilisch and Keating) and two New Zealanders (Van Gisbergen and McLaughlin) behind the wheel.”

Next year will mark the second season of competition at the Rolex 24 for the Z06 GT3.R, which is based on Chevy’s production vehicle with the same aluminum frame and a 5.5-liter, flat-plane crank V8 engine said to be 80 percent production.
The Z06 GT3.R won 11 races this year, captured 12 poles, and earned the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup GTD Pro Manufacturers Championship for Chevy.
