Chandrasoma Switches to TPC For Remainder of Season

Reigning Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America Am class champion Shehan Chandrasoma has joined forces with TPC Racing for the remainder of the season, making the switch from NTE Sport.

Chandrasoma and co-driver Bryson Lew will debut the No. 20 TPC Racing/Lamborghini Austin Huracan Super Trofeo EVO2 in the weekend’s pair of 50-minute races at Road America.

Chandrasoma comes to TPC in a battle for his second-straight Super Trofeo title after winning the Am class in his rookie season last year.

Securing his sixth victory of the year in 2022’s season-ending race last November in Portimao, Portugal was enough for Chandrasoma to jump from third to first in the final weekend of competition to clinch the Am title.

A Super Trofeo Am entry from TPC finished second to Chandrasoma in his title-clinching race in Portugal, which elevated TPC and its co-drivers to third in the final Am-class championship top three.

Earlier in the 2022 season, TPC won its first Super Trofeo race with a victory in the LB Cup division at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.

“TPC Racing is extremely happy to welcome Shehan Chandrasoma and his family and Lamborghini Austin to the TPC Racing family,” said TPC Racing director of race operations Harris Levitas.

“TPC Racing is run as a family owned and operated business and it is really wonderful to have a family like the Chandrasomas come out to all of the events with us with the support of Lamborghini Austin.

“We are looking forward to a really competitive weekend at Road America to get things started.”

Chandrasoma added: “Last year was just my first season in Super Trofeo and I really got to explore my love for driving and racing from that very first race at Laguna Seca. And who would have known it, but I ended up winning the Am championship.

“Now, this year with TPC Racing, I am super excited to expand the opportunity even more in a very fast Lamborghini and hopefully win a championship as well this season with TPC and Lamborghini Austin.

“Most of the tracks we went to last season were all brand new to me, including my first visit to Road America. It is a super fun track but very difficult for sure.

“We have a good shot at the Pro-Am championship this season. We left the first round leading the championship, but in the second race weekend at Watkins Glen we had some trouble with the setup.

“With the changeover to TPC Racing we are excited to get our car back in the game, starting at Road America.”

TPC first entered IMSA Super Trofeo North America competition late in the 2020 season and ran the full-time campaigns in both 2021 and 2022 as well.
