WeatherTech Racing alignera deux Porsche to Small Le Mans this weekend, for the final of theIMSA. The No. 79 will be competing with Copper MacNeil, Matt Campbell and Mathieu Jaminet. The Frenchman will make his fourth start at Road Atlanta with a top 5 to his credit. " Little Le Mans is a race that I really like, said Jaminet. Along with Sebring, it's one of my favorite tracks in America. It gets a little crazy when night falls. There will be more racing in the dark as the racing is later in the year. I almost won it twice in the past. Porsche has been very competitive there in the past, with the 911 RSR winning last year. Hopefully we can celebrate a great evening on the podium on Saturday night. »

“I found my two teammates with whom I won Sebring last March, adds MacNeil. The addition of the second Porsche WeatherTech will also help us this weekend. We will have two datasets to work with and three additional professional drivers. I think it's going to be the typical crazy little Le Mans. There are 43 cars and with more night racing, it's a recipe for crazy things to happen on the track. A little sad that this is the last race for these great Porsches in the GTLM class, but looking forward to a fast and fun race on Saturday. »
