• Drissi Motorsports carries a three-race team podium streak into this Saturday’s Trans Am round at Lime Rock Park
• 2009 series champion Tomy Drissi sits third in points with podiums at Road Atlanta and Sonoma I
• Drissi’s most recent podium at Lime Rock came last year, when he finished third

2009 Trans Am champion Tomy Drissi leads Drissi Motorsports into this weekend’s Trans Am event at Lime Rock Park looking to extend the team’s active podium streak to four consecutive races on Saturday. Drissi enters the event with his #8 Trench Shoring Company/Motul Chevrolet Camaro third in TA class points coming into the traditional Memorial Day weekend visit to Connecticut.

After Drissi took a pair of third place finishes in the #8 Trench Shoring Company/Motul Chevrolet Camaro at Road Atlanta in March and the first leg of the Sonoma Raceway doubleheader last month, 2012 series champion Simon Gregg extended the streak with a third place run of his own in the #59 Chevrolet Camaro in the second Sonoma race. As a result, Drissi Motorsports is the only team so far this Trans Am season to have scored podiums with more than one driver in the TA class.

Drissi’s first Trans Am podium at Lime Rock came in 2010, a runner-up finish that served as his third podium of that season. He has since added a second place finish in 2021 and a third place finish last year, the latter of which came after an intense battle with Amy Ruman off the race’s only restart. Drissi and Kyle Marcelli also teamed up to score an LMPC podium here in past IMSA action.

“I’m looking forward to another great weekend of Trans Am racing at Lime Rock,” said Drissi. “Last year, we overcame a lot of challenges to get onto the podium here, and with all of the podiums we’ve taken as a team recently, I think we have a great shot at getting back up there this weekend. The fans at Lime Rock are always awesome and I’m looking forward to their support again!”

Drissi Motorsports’ first opportunity to get on track comes on Thursday, with optional test sessions at 11:25AM and 3:50PM. Practice will take place on 10:45AM on Friday, followed by qualifying at 3:40PM. Drissi will also be signing autographs at the Country Carpenters Beer Pavilion on Friday at 1PM. Saturday’s race is scheduled for 68 laps or 75 minutes and will go green at 11:40AM. Tickets remain available, with free live streaming available as always via Racing America.
