The pair won their class in both races of the opening rounds of the season and took home an impressive third-place overall in Round 2. Ockey made the jump from AM this season and is sharing driving duties for the first time in his LST career. He’s incredibly happy to have Eidson as his co-driver.

Patrick Liddy and Bryce Miller return in the No.34 Lamborghini of Beverly Hills. The PRO duo finished second in Round 2 at Barber Motorsports Park, but are confident that they’ll be able to make it to the top step of the podium this weekend.

Steven Aghakhani joins the team in the No. 6 Lamborghini of Beverly Hills and will compete in the AM class. This will be Aghakhani’s first Lamborghini Super Trofeo start and he’s excited about the challenge ahead.
