Adelson, Skeer Set for Endurance Cup With Wright

Adam Adelson and Elliott Skeer will expand into the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship’s GTD class with Wright Motorsports next year.

The pairing will pilot the No. 120 Porsche 911 GT3 R for the five-round Michelin Endurance Cup season, while also contesting the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach.

The duo moves into the WeatherTech Championship after a season of racing in Fanatec GT World Challenge America powered by AWS, where they competed in the Pro-Am class.

Sportscar365 understands that Adelson and Skeer will also return to Fanatec GT competition next year.

Adelson and Skeer will be joined for the IMSA endurance races by longtime Wright driver Jan Heylen, with Porsche factory driver Fred Makowiecki completing the lineup for the season-opening Rolex 24 at Daytona.

“We’re proud to see another Wright Motorsports effort move up to face new challenges,” said team owner John Wright.

“Adam and Elliott had a strong season last year in SRO America’s GT World Challenge America, and our team is well-equipped to ensure a strong debut in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.

“With Jan and Fred alongside them, we are eager to see what we can achieve in this fiercely competitive series.”
