The second season of Ginetta’s one-make championship in North America, the Ginetta Challenge, begins later this month with a fantastic 20-car entry signed up to contest the opening round at Road Atlanta.
Introduced to the North America racing scene last year, the Ginetta Challenge is a spec series utilising the popular Ginetta G56 GTA platform. After a brilliant maiden campaign, the series is set for a bigger and better sophomore season with increased entry numbers and solo grids.
The 2025 season will run from March to October, with five events at historic race tracks in North America, including first trips to Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Barber Motorsport Park. Each event will incorporate a pair of 30-minute sprint races.
The championship, sanctioned through SVRA, will once again run on the popular SpeedTour package, with races live streamed globally via SpeedTour.TV on YouTube. Pirelli continues as the official tyre supplier, while entrants will benefit from trackside parts support from Ginetta North America at all rounds.
Mike Simpson – Chief Executive of Ginetta Motorsport:
“Launching the Ginetta Challenge last year was a big step in expanding our brand beyond the UK, bringing a dedicated racing series to our loyal customer base in North America.
“The inaugural year for the series was a real success and built up a lot of interest in Ginetta and the G56 GTA in North America. That’s been proven by the fantastic growth in the entry numbers for 2025 and the move to Ginetta only grids after sharing the track with other categories last year.
“Ginetta North America, with the support of SVRA and Pirelli, will be providing a top level of support and service for our customers this year and it’s sure to be a brilliant, competitive season of racing at some of the most iconic race circuits in North America.”
