Running separate programs this year, the 2023 season will see Tyler Maxson and Tyler Gonzalez back in one car at Copeland Motorsports.
Bringing the band back together for the Pirelli GT4 America program, Maxson and Gonzalez will pilot a Toyota GR Supra GT4.
Competing with Copeland in the past, Maxson won back-to-back SRO championships in 2019 and 2020 as he earned top honors in both TCA and TCR, respectively.
Gonzalez, meanwhile, returns to Copeland after earning multiple race wins in the TCA ranks before he and Maxson paired together in Copeland’s TCR debut in IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge.
“I am very excited to have both Tylers back in our program for 2023,” said Dean Copeland.
“Both are young talents with a very bright future, race winners at every level since their move to cars, and the perfect role models for Copeland Motorsports. We are expecting big things in 2023.”
Additionally, Gonzalez has been recently announced as a Toyota development driver.
“I am confident that we will have success from the very first event,” he said. “I am looking forward to once again sharing a car with Tyler and being back with Copeland Motorsports, a team that I have had much success with in the past.”
Maxson added: “The Toyota GT4 machine looks incredible, and it will look even better when we drive it to the winner’s circle in 2023.
“I am looking forward to once again sharing the car with T-Gun and a huge thanks to Copeland Motorsports for their continued effort to ensure success. I personally aim to make them proud in 2023.”
