***A total of 16 cars are set for this weekend’s Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America season finale, which concludes for the first time in the U.S. since the Sebring World Final in 2015. 

***Out of the list weekend’s entry, only Madison Snow, Brandon Gdovic, Corey Lewis and Andrea Amici took part in the 2015 event on the famed Florida airfield circuit, in what marked the first, and only to-date, Lamborghini World Final held in North America.

***While canceled for this year due to the coronavirus pandemic, the World Final venue had hosted the season-ending rounds for Super Trofeo in all previous years since the single-make championship’s North America launch in 2013.

***Both TPC Racing Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo Evos have been moved to the Am class for Sebring, with Moritz Kranz joining Tom Kerr in the No. 74 entry and the pairing of  Scott Schmidt and Trevor Andrusko, remaining unchanged in the No. 38 car other than the different class.

***Kranz has been working with TPC as a driver coach to Efrin Castro in the Porsche Cup, and driving in Michelin Le Mans Cup and the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS) in 2020.

“I’m super excited to be driving with Moritz,” said Kerr. “It gives me and the team an opportunity for a two-driver team during pit stops and adds another dimension to the race we haven’t experienced before.”

***William Hubbell and Eric Curran have returned to the series, sharing a Pro-Am class entered Lamborghini from Wayne Taylor Racing while Matt Dicken is also back after a one-race absence in the LB Cup class.

***TPC is fielding a total of six cars across two series this weekend, with four entries in the pair of the series-ending Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge USA by Yokohama races.

***The No. 6 US RaceTronics Lamborghini is sporting a new livery (pictured above) for the car’s title sponsor Sada, which has unveiled new branding. The Steven Aghakhani and Jacob Eidson-driven entry is also a new chassis since the last round at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.

***Sada is a leader in cloud-based business and technology consulting.

***Aghakhani and Eidson enter the event with a 15-point deficit to Madison Snow in the battle for the Pro class championship, which could be decided in Friday’s penultimate race of the season.

***The 2021 calendars for all Lamborghini Super Trofeo series will be announced on Sunday.

***Race 1 of the weekend gets underway Friday at 9 a.m. ET, with the season finale later in the day at 3:35 p.m. Both will be streamed live on IMSA.com/TVLive featuring commentary from IMSA Radio’s Brian Till and Jeremy Shaw.
