A total of 22 cars are on the entry list for next weekend’s Michelin GT Challenge at Virginia International Raceway, in the second and final GT-only event of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season.

Released on Wednesday, the entry list features no major changes since the most recent round of the season at Road America, other than a few driver changes.

As announced on Tuesday, Alice Powell will make her IMSA debut in the No. 57 Meyer Shank Racing Acura NSX GT3 Evo alongside Katherine Legge, while Scott Hargrove is set to return to the No. 9 Pfaff Motorsports Porsche 911 GT3 R, which is on a two-race win streak. 

Pfaff’s full season driver Zach Robichon teamed with Dennis Olsen and Matt Campbell to claim class wins at Lime Rock Park and Road America, respectively. 

As in the case with MSR’s Christina Nielsen, both Porsche Young Professionals are unavailable to contest the VIR race due to their commitments in the Suzuka 10 Hours the same weekend.
