CDR Valkyrie will move to the GS class of IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge, fielding a Toyota GR Supra GT4 EVO next year.

The California-based squad appeared at last year’s GT America powered by AWS round at Road America, where it fielded an Acura NSX GT3 Evo22 for Brian Lock and a Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3 for Amir Haleem.

Drivers for the Pilot Challenge effort have not yet been named, while the team has stated that its debut is slated for either the second round at Sebring International Raceway or round three at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.

CDR Valkyrie is the second GS class squad to confirm its Pilot Challenge plans for the upcoming season this week, after JMF Motorsport announced on Tuesday that it would join the series with a Mercedes-AMG GT4 for Pirelli GT4 America Silver class runner-ups Michai Stephens and Jesse Webb.

The two squads join the previously confirmed Todd Coleman Racing, which will field an Aston Martin Vantage GT4 spearheaded by Aaron Telitz.
