Lars Kern, Kay van Berlo and Aaron Jeansonne will complete Kellymoss’ lineups for next month’s GT World Challenge powered by AWS season-ending Indianapolis 8 Hour presented by AWS.

Former Pirelli GT4 America Pro-Am champion van Berlo will join forces with Riley Dickinson and Todd Parriott in the team’s No. 13 Porsche 911 GT3 R Evo, while Colin Braun and Michael Clark will welcome Kern in the No. 017 entry.

Jeansonne, a front-runner in Porsche Carrera Cup North America with the Madison, Wis.-based team, will complete the No. 88 Porsche lineup with full season drivers Loek Hartog and John Gilliland.

All three cars will continue to compete in the Pro-Am class.

“I’m thrilled to get back behind the wheel of a Porsche,” said the former Porsche Motorsport North America Selected Driver. “The itch to go racing never really goes away, and to come back with a group that feels so familiar makes it even better.

“Kellymoss and Riley Technologies have been a huge part of my racing career, so there’s a tremendous amount of trust and familiarity already there.

Kern, a Porsche road car development driver, added: “I am very excited to be joining Michael, Colin and Kellymoss in my favorite car, a Porsche 911.

“There is going to be a lot of competition since the Indy 8 hours is part of the Intercontinental GT Championship but I can’t wait to join them and fight for a podium in the Pro-Am class.”

Jeansonne added: “This race has been on my bucket list for quite some time. I’m especially excited to be joining Kellymoss with Riley, a group I know so well.

“I think our driver lineup will have great chemistry too.”
