After a strong maiden season, the goal for 2026 is clear: turn momentum into more podiums and contend even further up the order.
“We’re excited to be back in the IMSA VP Racing Sportscar Challenge for 2026,” said Justin Di Benedetto. “Last season was our first foray into the IMSA paddock, and we had a great year finishing fourth in the GSX standings with our Porsche Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport. I’ll be looking to build on our successes from last year and have an even stronger 2026. Last season was a complete reset for our program, as it was our first full season in the United States where five of the six tracks we raced at were completely new for me.”
“The podiums at VIR and Road Atlanta were the highlights of the season and we are aiming to grab more next time out. We had great competition all season and I’m proud that we were the fastest Porsche in our class. We kick off the season in a few weeks at Daytona for the Roar, and I couldn’t think of a more perfect place to start the racing year.”
“There are a lot of people involved in our race program, from my family, to the guys at Bestline Auto Tech, Matt, Vito and George, plus the rest of our crew, Max, Craig, Michael and Danny. All of them are integral to this program and I’m very proud of the group we’ve assembled heading into next season. All our partners and sponsors have been fantastic supporters of our IMSA efforts in 2026.”
The 2026 campaign begins on January 16 with the Roar Before the Rolex 24 at Daytona International Speedway, where Di Benedetto and the team will open their season and set the tone for another year in GSX competition.
