MSR’s Acura NSX IMSA Liveries Unveiled

All set for Rolex 24 debut

Michael Shank Racing has revealed the liveries for its pair of Acura NSX GT3s which will compete in the 2017 WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.

The #86 car, commemorating Acura’s 30th anniversary since its establishment in 1986, will have a black nose, fading to a grey cross hatch pattern before giving way to white at the rear. The #93 team car, representing 1993, the year HPD was founded, will reverse the color pattern, with a white front end transitioning to a black rear deck.

Shank Racing’s driver pairings have also been revealed. Andy Lally and Katherine Legge will share the #93 car and will be joined by Mark Wilkins for the North American Endurance Cup races and IndyCar star Graham Rahal for Daytona.

The #86 NSX meanwhile, will see Ozz Negri and Jeff Segal paired up. Tom Dyer will join them in the four endurance races and Ryan Hunter-Reay will complete the lineup for Daytona.

The Acura NSX’s will be in action next on January 6-8 for the “Roar Before the 24” test, prior to the car’s global race debut January 28-29 Rolex 24 at Daytona International Speedway.
