TRG-ASTON MARTIN RACING TAKES THREE CAR TEAM TO THE STREET FIGHT OF ST. PETERSBURG

This weekend, the TRG-Aston Martin Racing will return to St. Petersburg for the second round of the Pirelli World Challenge competition. Rolling out in force, the team will bring along three Aston Martin race cars to compete in four races over the course of three days. 

“We had a great run at COTA earlier this month, in both races I improved on my starting position and brought the car home in one piece,” said Team Driver Dereck DeBoer. “I’m looking to build on that solid performance heading into this weekend, focusing on running clean and going for the podium.”

TRG-AMR will be fighting for the win in both the GTA and GTS categories. The team arrived in St. Petersburg fresh from the Circuit of the Americas Pirelli World Challenge season opener, which saw Team Driver, Christina Nielsen finish P3 in GTA and Team Driver, Kris Wilson take home the win in the GTS field. While this is the first time on this unforgiving street course for all three of our drivers, they’re all confident that they are more than capable of handling the tricky 1.8 mile 14-turn street circuit.

“I am glad to be running in Pirelli World Challenge again, after our win at COTA, especially,” said Wilson. “This is such a great team to run with, I can never get over how they have every single little thing covered. The V8 Vantage GT4 is also a really strong platform, which makes it a little easier to look so good out there!”
