IMSA: Mazda to run one gas, one diesel P2 at Watkins Glen

RACER has confirmed the Mazda Motorsports team will race in this weekend's Sahlen's Six Hours at the Glen with a gas-powered 2-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine in the No. 07 P2 entry, and the existing 2.2-liter turbodiesel 4-cylinder motor in the No. 70.

At present, the team is only able to confirm the split gas/diesel entry dynamic for Watkins Glen. It's unclear whether the team will convert both cars to gas engines for the four races after Watkins, or if diesel power will return for Canadian Tire Motorsport Park and beyond.
