4 CAR IDENTITY CLASS COLORS To help fans easily identify a class of car, the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship implemented a new color system for A Pro class is designated by RED markings on the number panel, mirrors, windscreen banner, rear wing end plate, and leader light. A Pro-Am class is designated by BLUE markings on the number panel, mirrors, windscreen banner, rear wing end plate, and leader light. Number panels are backlit for easy identification at night. LEADER LIGHT SYSTEM To help fans follow the on track action, the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship has introduced a revolutionary and state-of-the-art Leader Light System for the 2014 season. It allows fans to easily identify the position of each car in its respective class. The position of the car is displayed on an LED panel mounted on the rear side section of each car. The color of the LED number corresponds with the red (Pro) and blue (Pro-Am) colors utilized in both the Prototype and GT style of cars. For instance, a red #5 LED number on a GT style car it means that car is in 5th position in the GTLM class. MOBILE APP NOW AVAILABLE!

5 CLASSES The TUDOR United SportsCar Championship features two styles of cars, Prototype and GT (Grand Touring). Each style of car has two classes, Pro and Pro-Am, meaning there are four classes of racing on track together, each with their own battle for the lead. PRO VS PRO-AM The Pro classes typically feature a professional driver line up while the Pro-Am classes pair a professional and amateur driver together. CLASS SPECIFICATIONS PROTOTYPE (PRO) The Prototype (P) class features the fastest and most technologically advanced cars in North America. They are specifically designed and engineered for the race track and look drastically different than a typical street car. PROTOTYPE CHALLENGE (PRO-AM) The Prototype Challenge (PC) class is a spec class featuring open cockpit race cars and technology such as carbon fiber chassis, carbon brakes and a sequential gearbox. GT LE MANS (PRO) The GT Le Mans (GTLM) cars are the fastest GT cars on the track. They are based on production models and are engineered to extract the maximum performance possible. The class serves as a true proving ground for leading manufacturers such as BMW, Corvette, Ferrari, Porsche, and SRT. GT DAYTONA (PRO-AM) The GT Daytona cars are enhanced (not defined by) technology. They are also based on production model cars but do not feature the same level of aerodynamics and power as the GTLM class cars. The GTD class consists of cars from the GRAND-AM GT and ALMS GTC classes as well as select FIA GT3-spec cars.
