Pirelli GT4 America has continued to grow, with an increased grid of 29 cars set for this weekend’s third and fourth rounds of the season at Sebring International Raceway.

The entry list features two additions since the season opener at Sonoma Raceway in Orlando Motorsports Services’ McLaren Artura GT4 for Nick Longhi and Kaia Teo, as well as the RySpec Racing Mercedes-AMG GT4 driven by Johan Schwartz and Dan Dyszelski.

The McLaren will compete in the Am class with Schwartz and Dyszelski set to do battle for Pro-Am class honors.

No other changes have been made since Sonoma, although Blackdog Racing’s Nissan Z NISMO GT4 does not currently list a driver alongside Tony Gaples. Michael Cooper was slated to contest the season in the car for the Chicagoland-based team.

Smooge Racing’s John Geesbreght and Tyler Gonzalez currently hold a narrow single-point lead over the Random Vandal Racing duo of Kevin Boehm and Kenton Koch in the Silver class after two races.

BimmerWorld’s James Walker Jr. and Tyler McQuarrie are out front in Pro-Am, while Hannah Grisham and Hannah Greenemeier lead the way for Heart of Racing Team in the Am class.

GT4 America competitors will first take to the track on Friday for a pair of practice sessions, followed by qualifying on Saturday morning and the first race set for 5 p.m. EDT that evening.

Race 2 gets underway at 3 p.m. EDT on Sunday, with both 60-minute contests set to be streamed live on SRO’s GT World YouTube page and on Twitch.
