Kellymoss will make its return to the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship in 2027, having confirmed a full season GTD class effort with Colin Braun and Michael Clark.

The duo, who contested this year’s GT World Challenge America powered by AWS season together in a Kellymoss Porsche 911 GT3 R Evo, will be joined by Kyle Marcelli for the Michelin Endurance Cup races.

It will mark the team’s first full-time effort in the WeatherTech Championship since 2023 when it ran a pair of Porsches under the Kellymoss with Riley banner, and made two starts the following year.

“We’re excited to return to the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship with Michael and Colin,” said team principal and co-owner Andy Kilcoyne.

“Having won both sprint and endurance championships with Michael in 2024, it’s been rewarding to see his continued development and the partnership he’s built with Colin since we brought them together in late 2025.

“This is a significant step forward for everyone involved, and we’re focused on building a program capable of competing at the front.”

Braun moves from the GTP to GTD class following Acura’s withdrawal from top-class prototype competition.

“I’m incredibly excited for 2027,” he said. “Michael and I clicked right away as co-drivers and built a great friendship throughout the 2026 season. Being part of his first full-season IMSA program is something I’m really looking forward to.

“He’s put in a tremendous amount of work to prepare for this next step, and with the support of Kellymoss behind us, I believe we’ll be well-positioned to deliver strong results throughout the year.

“We’re putting together a great group of people who are motivated to succeed, and we’re going to have a lot of fun along the way.”

FIA Bronze-rated driver Clark, meanwhile, is set for his series debut after coming through the Porsche single-make ranks before making his GT3 debut last year in GTWC America.

“Colin and I have been working hard to prepare both the car and myself for this next step,” he said. “Competing at this level is a dream come true, and I’m grateful to Kellymoss, Colin and IMSA for the trust and confidence they’ve placed in me.”

Kellymoss’ return to top-level IMSA competition is not expected to impact its efforts in GTWC America, having fielded three Porsches this past season, and is likely to continue with at least two entries in the SRO America-run series for 2027.
