Team goes into Rounds 10/11/12 at the fan favorite course as championship contenders
ELKHART LAKE, Wis. – Turn 3 Motorsport is back on track at the 4.014-mile, 14-turn road course of Road America this weekend for Rounds 10/11/12 of the USF Pro 2000 Championship Presented by Continental Tire. Along with the USF Pro 2000 series, the fan favorite Grand Prix of Road America will be headlined by the NTT INDYCAR SERIES and will also feature the USF2000 Championship, INDY NXT and Radical Cup North America series for a packed weekend of racing.
Turn 3 Motorsport had an excellent weekend at Road America last year, topping every test and official practice session and earning a pole position, race win and additional podium with current INDY NXT drivers Michael d’Orlando and Jonathan Browne, setting the bar high for the three-race weekend this year.
The team goes into the race weekend just one point away from the championship lead with driver Lochie Hughes and is looking to score some valuable points to increase the tally during the triple header round.
