Ford Racing will make its final SRO America appearance of the season at the historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the Indianapolis 8 Hour. The headlining Ford Mustang GT3 effort features a dynamic Pro-Am driver lineup, competing alongside a narrowly margined GT4 championship battle on the world-famous Brickyard circuit.
Leading the charge in the Fanatec GT World Challenge America powered by AWS and Intercontinental GT Challenge (IGTC), Dollahite Racing’s Mustang GT3 features a trio of Scott Dollahite, Alex Sedgwick, and Christopher Mies. Dollahite returns to the cockpit after serving in a managerial role, while Ford factory driver Christopher Mies heads back to the "Racing Capital of the World" just weeks after competing on the circuit in a sprint format.
Beyond the flagship eight-hour race, Ford Racing will also compete in Pirelli GT4 America, where TechSport Racing leads an Am class championship run in the series return of the Mustang GT4. TechSport, with drivers Frankie Muniz and Tyler Stone, enters the season finale following crucial victories—including a bounce-back win at Barber Motorsports Park—positioning them at the front of the title hunt.\

DRIVER QUOTES
SCOTT DOLLAHITE, No. 6 Dollahite Racing Ford Mustang GT3 – “Stepping into the team manager role this season has given me a completely new perspective on our operation, but nothing beats the feeling of getting back behind the wheel of the Ford Mustang GT3. I’m excited to apply everything I've learned on the pit wall back into the cockpit. Indianapolis is one of the biggest stages of the year and I’m absolutely fired up to put the helmet back on and deliver a strong result for Ford Racing.”
CHRISTOPHER MIES, No. 6 Dollahite Racing Ford Mustang GT3 – “I’m looking forward to being back in IGTC with the Ford Mustang GT3, and building from the momentum we gained in Suzuka after a second-place podium from pole position. I’m especially excited to be working with a new team, Dollahite Racing, for my second race in Indy within the last month. We’ve proven that the Mustang GT3 can be strong at Indy, and I’m confident that we will have a good package to compete this weekend.”
ALEX SEDGWICK, No. 6 Dollahite Racing Ford Mustang GT3 – “It’s been a very up-and-down year but all the signs are headed in the right direction to where we can finish on a high. There’s been some changes, and it’s going to be good to see how Scott gets on with the Mustang GT3 since it has been upgraded to the evo spec, and I’m looking forward to welcoming and learning from Chris Mies as he makes his debut with the team. It’s also important to mention the contributions that Cameron Lawrence has made this year, and I hope that all of our collective hard work to this point can help us bring home a good result for Ford.”
