Following a highly successful inaugural season competing in the Fanatec GT World Challenge America’s Pro/Am class, Adam Adelson and Elliott Skeer will join the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship’s GTD class for the upcoming 2024 season.
The duo will participate in the five races of the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup, plus the Long Beach Grand Prix. Teaming up with Wright Motorsports veteran Jan Heylen, the trio will pilot the #120 Porsche 911 GT3 R for the endurance rounds, while Porsche factory driver Fred Makowiecki will complete the lineup for the Rolex 24 at Daytona.
“We’re proud to see another Wright Motorsports effort move up to face new challenges,” said team owner John Wright. “Adam and Elliott had a strong season last year in SRO America’s GT World Challenge America, and our team is well-equipped to ensure a strong debut in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. With Jan and Fred alongside them, we are eager to see what we can achieve in this fiercely competitive series.”
Adelson and Skeer’s promotion to the GTD class comes on the heels of an impressive season in the GT World Challenge Pro/Am class, where they secured six victories and an additional podium finish. The pair, along with Wright Motorsports, clinched second place in the championship standings, taking the title fight to the season finale at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
