Download Schedule
Sanctioned by the International
Motor Sports Association and in conjunction with Porsche Motorsport
North America, the series gives top semi-professional and gentlemen
drivers from the United States and North America the opportunity
to compete with such prestigious organizations as the American
Le Mans Series in the world's most successful GT3 car – the
Porsche 911 GT3 Cup racer. The purpose-built race cars, based
on the Porsche 997 body style, will have sealed engines and
transmissions, providing for close racing where the driver's
talents are exemplified. PMNA will provide technical support
for the series with personnel, parts and expertise both away
from and at the track.
Kinetic Motorsports
will field three cars this year in the IMSA Cup Challenge. Russell
Smith will again compete in his Kinetic Porsche 997 debuting
at Sebring International Raceway for his third season in the
series. In addition, Kinetic has also acquired Dino Steiner
and Jorge DeMacedo who will compete with Kinetic support. Steiner
finished the 2006 Championship in second place in the standings
just two points behind champion Nathan Swartzbaugh. DeMacedo,
who has competed successfully with Kinetic in select club racing
events, will make his official debut in the series at Sebring. For

Kinetic Motorsports competes
in the Grand-Am KONI Challenge Series with its three car BMW
effort anchored by world renowned drivers Nic Jonsson and Boris
Said. The series is Grand-Am's showcase for the latest
in international and American-made high performance sports
cars, coupes and sedans straight from the dealer showroom floor.
With major modifications permitted only in the area of safety,
the KONI Challenge Series is home to the same cars seen on
streets and highways around the world every day.
The starting fields for KONI
Challenge Series races typically feature more than 50 of today's
hottest import and domestic production cars. Series races--which
will be 400 kilometers in length except for the three-hour season-opener
at Daytona and twin six-hour events to close the season at Virginia
International Raceway--are primarily run as the featured support
events for the Rolex Sports Car Series presented by Crown Royal
Special Reserve, although the KONI Challenge Series will step
into the spotlight with a few feature races of its own in 2007. For
