GT America powered by AWS will welcome additional car platforms into its series next year, with the creation of a Cup class for Porsche 911 GT3 Cup cars, Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO2 and Ferrari Challenge machinery.

The addition of the cars most regularly seen in each manufacturer’s single-make championships join the already eligible GT3, GT2 and GT4 platforms of competition.

The single Bronze driver-rated series, which will again feature two 40-minute races, but on a seven-event weekend mirroring that of GT World Challenge America powered by AWS and Pirelli GT4 America.

Long Beach, which featured on the calendar for the last two years, will not return, while the possible addition of another street circuit is understood to not have materialized.

GT America will again present the Masters Award at each event weekend, honoring the highest-finishing driver aged 55 and over.

GT4 America, which also released its 2026 calendar on Friday during SRO Motorsports Group’s annual press conference at Spa-Francorchamps, is unchanged from this year and will again be highlighted by the three-hour Lone Star Enduro at Circuit of The Americas for the third consecutive year.

As will be the case in GTWC America, a more streamlined three-day weekend format will be in place for GT4 America, which will run from Thursday through Saturdays.

GT America race weekends will mirror that of GTWC America, from Friday through Sundays.

March 27-29 — Sonoma Raceway
April 24-26 — Circuit of The Americas
May 15-17 — Sebring International Raceway
June 12-14 — TBA
Aug. 28-30 — TBA
