Pfaff Motorsports will switch away from its huge-successful Porsche program in the IMSA SportsCar Championship to become McLaren’s manufacturer-nominated entry in GTD Pro.
Canada-based Pfaff will field a sole 720S GT3 Evo as it chases a third title in the series, with a driver lineup that has yet to be finalized. Pfaff’s move to McLaren follows a successful five-year run in IMSA’s premier series with Porsche, which resulted in championship titles in the 2021 GTD and 2022 GTD Pro classes, plus a total of 12 race victories. The move follows hot on the heels of McLaren joining the World Endurance Championship’s new LMGT3 class with United Autosports next season.
“Adopting the 720S GT3 Evo platform for the 2024 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship demonstrates our confidence in McLaren as a business, a racing partner, and retail partner. “We’re excited about the future of the McLaren brand, and excited to be part of building that future with them.” Ian Morgan, director of motorsport, McLaren Automotive, added: “We are delighted to have Pfaff Motorsports onboard as one of our racing partners.
