Team Panoz Racing will field two Panoz Avezzano GT4-homologated cars next year with returning driver Ian James once again driving the No. 50 car and Preston Calvert joining the team to drive the sister No. 51 Panoz.
Panoz has confirmed it is undergoing the necessary steps to homologate the Panoz Avezzano, the company’s latest V8-powered, aluminum-intensive sports car, to meet the SRO GT4 class requirements.
“GT4 homologation broadens our Panoz Avezzano racing options,” said team manager Tom Milner. “There’s a lot happening this off season and we hope to share more news soon. But today we’re happy to announce that Preston has joined our team.”
This is Team Panoz Racing’s first official commitment to a 2018 motorsports program.
One year ago Panoz announced its return to GT competition when it confirmed its inaugural Pirelli World Challenge season racing the new Panoz Avezzano in the PWC GT4/GTS Championship.
