Royal Purple Sponsored GT Daytona Teams take Top Two spots in 2015 IMSA TUDOR United SportsCar Championship

Premium synthetic lubricant and performance chemical manufacturer, Royal Purple®, is proud to announce that its two sponsored GT Daytona (GTD) class race teams, Scuderia Corsa and TRG Aston Martin Racing (TRG-AMR), finished in the top two positions in the 2015 IMSA TUDOR United SportsCar Championship (TUSCC). Scuderia Corsa secured first place overall for the season, just ahead of runner up TRG-AMR.

The 2015 TUSCC has proved to be an exciting season for Scuderia Corsa and TRG-AMR, with both teams fiercely competing in 10 different races at the most challenging racetracks in the U.S. Scuderia Corsa’s No. 63 Ferrari 458 Italia secured the top position as the series’ points leader with a strong performance at the final race of the season, Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta on October 3. Co-drivers Bill Sweedler, Townsend Bell and Jeff Segal overcame the adverse weather conditions on the track to lock in the championship.

TRG-AMR’s No. 007 Aston Martin V12 Vantage co-drivers, Christina Nielsen and Kuno Wittmer, proved to be worthy contenders with consistent podium finishes throughout the season, ultimately finishing in 2015 in second place.

“We’re incredibly proud to be a partner of Scuderia Corsa and TRG Aston Martin Racing,” said Debby Neubauer, Royal Purple’s Director of Marketing. “It’s absolutely thrilling to see Royal Purple’s products help two incredible teams outperform in what was such a close battle for the championship.”
