Unitronic-JDC Miller Motorsports will return for a full season run in IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge with the unchanged driver lineup of Chris Miller and Mikey Taylor.

The pairing will again pilot the No. 17 Audi RS 3 LMS TCR SEQ, which will feature an expanded partnership with Liqui-Moly.

“I’m so happy that we could continue with Unitronic, JDC-Miller Motorsports, and most of the other partners and foundation that we built last year,” said Miller.

“2021 was a season of highs and lows but I think we proved that we have all the pieces to win a championship.

“Mikey and I developed great chemistry last year and I know we will be tough to beat.”

The duo finished seventh in the TCR drivers’ championship last year, with class wins at Daytona and Virginia International Raceway among the highlights for the Minnesota-based operation.

“We had a lot of opportunities last year with two wins, two pole positions and several top 5s but unfortunately we also had some really bad races,” said Taylor.

“We’ve made some adjustments in the off-season and I know the guys have been working hard to give us the best possible chance to succeed.

“It’s great to have continuity within the team for another season with our driver lineup, crew and partners.”

The JDC-Miller entry is one of 12 TCR cars slated to take part in this weekend’s Roar Before the Rolex 24 pre-season test, which is not mandatory for Pilot Challenge competitors.

Additional TCR entries are expected for the four-hour BMW M Endurance Challenge on Jan. 28.
