2026 Trans-Am Series

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2026 Trans-Am Series season (known for sponsorship reasons as the 2026 Trans-Am Series presented by Pirelli) is the 58th running of the Trans-Am Series and sanctioned by SCCA Pro Racing. The National Championship began at Sebring International Raceway on February 26, and will finish at Circuit of The Americas on November 8. The Western Championship began at Sonoma Raceway on April 23 and will finish at Circuit of The Americas. Both championships will run two rounds jointly at Sonoma and COTA. From this year onwards, the events will no longer be held under the SpeedTour name, as Parella Motorsports & SpeedTour have been rebranded under Racing America.[1]

A new championship was created for this season, named TA Sprint, consisting of races that are 50 miles or 35 minutes.[2] Eligible cars are TA2-based cars that currently compete in the Trans-Am Series, as well as older TA2 cars running in the SCCA Club Racing GT2 class, and other club racing platforms.[3]
