• Tomy Drissi heads to Road America third in the Trans Am championship after a top five finish at Mid-Ohio
• In recent years, Drissi has built a two-race top five streak at Road America, as well as taking the pole in 2021 and the fastest race lap in 2020
• Other achievements for Drissi at Road America include two NASCAR Xfinity Series starts and Drissi Motorsports’ first race as a three-car team last year

2009 Trans Am champion Tomy Drissi and Drissi Motorsports are set to take on the second of back-to-back Trans Am by Pirelli race weekends at Road America. Drissi and the #8 Trench Shoring Company/Motul/Franklin Road Apparel Chevrolet Camaro team remain a solid third in the championship, with hopes of returning to the podium at one of America’s most iconic racing venues on Saturday.

Drissi’s experience at Road America dates to his rookie Trans Am season in 1999, when he finished ninth. He has scored multiple top five finishes in his Trans Am career at the famed Wisconsin circuit, including two in a row the past two seasons, as well as the pole in 2021 and the fastest lap the year prior. Last year’s Road America race also marked a milestone for Drissi Motorsports, as the team fielded three cars in a Trans Am race for the first time. Alongside his Trans Am experience at the track, Drissi also made two starts here in the NASCAR Xfinity Series in 2015 and 2016.

After gaining points on second place in the Trans Am standings last weekend at Mid-Ohio, Drissi will look to cut the gap further with a strong run at Road America. He spent most of the Mid-Ohio race in a podium position, turning fast laps on pace with the leaders. With two podiums and top five finishes in all but one race so far this season, Drissi aims to convert his speed and consistency into a season-best performance this weekend.

“We’re ready to get back after it this weekend at Road America,” said Drissi. “We had better pace at Mid-Ohio than the results showed, and we’re glad to be able to get right back to racing this weekend to show that off. Our consistency has kept us towards the top of the standings so far, and we typically get faster as the season continues, so we have high hopes to get back on the box this weekend.”

Trans Am action for Tomy Drissi and Drissi Motorsports from Road America kicks off with a pair of optional test sessions at noon and 3:40PM on Thursday. On Friday, practice will run at 10:55AM and TA drivers will qualify at 3:50PM. Saturday’s race will kick off at 12:35PM and run for 25 laps or 75 minutes, with the usual live streaming available on Trans Am social media channels and SPEED SPORT 1.

The post Tomy Drissi Back in Trans Am Action at Road America appeared first on Tomy Drissi.

• Tomy Drissi brought the #8 Drissi Motorsports Chevrolet to third place Monday’s Trans Am Memorial Day Classic
• Drissi came out on top of the most exciting battle of the race, defending the final podium spot after an early red flag before pulling away
• The 2009 Trans Am champion remains third in the TA championship

2009 Trans Am champion Tomy Drissi scored his second podium of the 2025 Trans Am by Pirelli season in Monday’s Memorial Day Classic at Lime Rock Park. Drissi and the #8 Trench Shoring Company/Motul/Franklin Road Apparel Chevrolet Camaro team overcame a weekend of high attrition in the TA class to finish third, further strengthening their grip on third place in the championship.

After sporadic rains washed out much of Saturday’s testing and practice time, Monday’s qualifying and race sessions were dry and sunny. Drissi qualified fifth, but he roared into third with a spectacular start before settling back into fourth in the early laps. But after a major crash in the battle among the leaders led to a red flag, Drissi would inherit third place for the race’s only restart.

What came next was one of the most impressive drives of the Trans Am season. After the restart, Drissi fought tooth and nail to keep a hard-charging Amy Ruman from taking the final podium spot despite low tire pressures that hindered his pace. As the race wore on, the battle gave way to Drissi’s superior long-run speed, and he pulled away to secure the position while also matching the leaders’ late-race times during the 68-lap event.

“We were five pounds under pressure on our tires,” Drissi admitted from the podium. “I thought ‘did my sway bar break? What’s going on?’ But I just put my head down. We all make mistakes together and we all get podiums together. No more yellows came out, but we ran some good laps at the end. That was a lot of laps around here!

“I want to thank Trench Shoring and Motul for their support. Lacy, Jagger, Elin, I love you, and all these fans here at Lime Rock Park are amazing!”

The podium finish was Drissi’s first at Lime Rock Park in the TA class since 2021, and proved highly popular with the fans on-site as he took one of his famous podium selfies with fellow drivers Paul Menard and Adam Andretti. With four top-fives in the first five races of the season, Drissi remains third in the TA championship as he looks ahead to three races in four weeks at Mid-Ohio, Road America, and Watkins Glen in June and July.

The post Tomy Drissi Returns to Trans Am Podium in Memorial Day Classic at Lime Rock appeared first on Tomy Drissi.

• Tomy Drissi and Drissi Motorsports set their sights on the front of the field in Monday’s Trans Am Memorial Day Classic
• Drissi has had many successes in his Trans Am career at Lime Rock, including last year’s pole position and multiple podiums
• Drissi sits third in the TA championship with three top five finishes in four rounds

2009 Trans Am champion Tomy Drissi and Drissi Motorsports return to the track this weekend for the Trans Am Memorial Day Classic, the fifth round of the 2025 Trans Am by Pirelli season, at Lime Rock Park. After a strong pair of results in his home state of California, Drissi and the #8 Trench Shoring Company/Motul/Franklin Road Apparel Chevrolet Camaro team head east with their sights set on another podium finish.

Drissi has scored multiple podiums in his Trans Am career at Lime Rock, beginning with a runner-up finish in 2010 and most recently finishing second in 2021. Last year, he conquered the rain in qualifying to score the pole position, his first pole since 2021 and first running for his own team; in the race itself, he would lead multiple laps on the way to a solid fourth place finish. In the American Le Mans Series, he teamed up with Kyle Marcelli to score a third place finish at the track in 2011.

With three top five finishes in the first four races of the year, including a podium at Sonoma Raceway, Drissi has persevered through a season that has thrown major challenges at most of his rivals. He currently sits third in the TA championship, and he’ll have a strong opportunity to climb into second with another strong finish at Lime Rock.

“I couldn’t be more excited to get back on track at Lime Rock Park,” said Drissi. “It’s always amazing to race on Memorial Day weekend, because we get to meet so many people who have served the country and thank them for their service. I’ve also had a lot of great results here, including my pole in the rain last year, and I’m looking forward to adding another on Monday when we take the green flag.

Drissi and the rest of the TA class will face a unique Saturday-Monday schedule at this weekend’s Trans Am Memorial Day Classic. On Saturday, optional test sessions will run at 9:45AM and 11:40AM, and practices will take place at 3:05PM and 4:40PM. Sunday’s qualifying session will kick off at 9:05AM, while the race will go green at noon and will feature either 68 laps or 75 minutes of action. Tickets remain available here; as always, live streaming will be available on both Speed Sport 1 and the Trans Am YouTube channel.

The post Tomy Drissi Aims for Trans Am Championship Gains in Lime Rock appeared first on Tomy Drissi.

• Tomy Drissi and Drissi Motorsports finished fourth in Sunday’s Trans Am race at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca
• Drissi put on some of the most exciting on-track battles of the weekend, including a thrilling late-race battle for the final podium spot
• Top five finishes in back-to-back race weeks allowed Drissi to climb to third in the TA standings

Tomy Drissi and Drissi Motorsports wrapped up a successful West Coast swing in the Trans Am by Pirelli championship on Sunday with a fourth place finish at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. Drissi, the 2009 Trans Am champion, used top-five finishes in back-to-back race weeks in his home state of California to climb to third in the TA championship standings with the #8 Trench Shoring Company/Motul/Franklin Road Apparel Chevrolet Camaro.

Between scoring his first podium of the season in the previous round at Sonoma Raceway and his win at Laguna Seca in 2021, Drissi entered the weekend with momentum on his side. After a solid qualifying run, he’d line up third on the final grid, just .005 seconds off a starting spot on the front row.

In a season of high attrition for nearly the whole TA field, Drissi has been a beacon of consistency, and Laguna Seca was no different. Amid the chaos of multiple drivers changing cars for the weekend, caution flags, and spins up front, he remained in the podium hunt all race long. The #8 Camaro was a fixture in some of the most exciting battles for position all weekend, including an exciting battle for third place with Paul Menard in the closing laps.

When Drissi crossed the finish line, he’d be scored fourth, just .083 seconds short of his second podium in as many weeks and his fourth straight podium at Laguna Seca. Nonetheless, the California swing was kind to Drissi’s quest for another championship, as he jumped two spots in the standings in as many weeks.

“I’m glad to wrap up the past two weeks of racing with another great finish at Laguna Seca,” said Drissi. “We were right on the pace all weekend long and so, so close to another podium, and the points will be very valuable as the season continues. Paul was after me for the last few laps, and he barely got by me at the end, but it was just good, hard racing from both of us going for the position.

“It was great to bring Trans Am back to California and meet so many great fans over the past two weeks, and I can’t wait to get back on track again later this month! Thank you to Trench Shoring Company, Motul, Franklin Road Apparel, and the whole team for their support.”

Drissi Motorsports’ next race at the Lime Rock SpeedTour will take place on May 23-26. On Saturday, TA test sessions will take place at 9:45AM and 12:25PM and practice will run at 5:30PM. On Monday, qualifying will kick off at 9:05AM, while the race will go green at 12:55PM and will feature either 68 laps or 75 minutes of action. Tickets remain available here; as always, live streaming will be available on both Speed Sport 1 and the Trans Am YouTube channel.

The post Tomy Drissi Climbs to Third in Trans Am Championship at Laguna Seca appeared first on Tomy Drissi.

• 2009 Trans Am Series champion Tomy Drissi finished third in Sunday’s Trans Am race from Sonoma Raceway
• The podium was Drissi’s second straight at Sonoma, where he also finished second in 2022
• Drissi now ranks fourth in the TA championship heading into this weekend’s race at Laguna Seca, where he carries a three-race podium streak including a win in 2021

Drissi Motorsports team principal and 2009 series champion Tomy Drissi scored his first podium finish of the 2025 Trans Am presented by Pirelli season on Sunday at Sonoma Raceway. In the series’ first race in California since 2022, Drissi wheeled the #8 Trench Shoring Company/Motul Chevrolet Camaro to a third place finish in the first of back-to-back races in his home state.

After Drissi posted a top five lap time in practice, qualifying was raised out, leaving those results to set the race grid. As the race progressed, he got to work on fourth place Brent Crews, moving into the spot just after the halfway mark of the race. From there, a frenetic lap that saw a major crash for two other TA competitors in Turn 10 would allow the consistent Drissi to lock into third, and he would hold onto the final podium spot for the rest of the race.

“It feels really good to be back on the podium!” said Drissi. “These first couple races, we were right there for a couple podiums and had some issues. This time, other drivers had the bad luck, and we were able to take advantage. It was great to get back to Sonoma and see all the fans, and to finish it all off with a great result makes it even better.

“Thank you to the Trench Shoring Company, Motul, Franklin Road, Ken Thwaits, Trans Am, and all the fans. It’s great that we get to build on this momentum right away in Laguna Seca with another race. I’m ready to go for another podium!”

The finish was Drissi’s first podium of the season and his second straight at Sonoma, where he finished second in 2022. It allowed him to gain a spot in the TA championship standings, where he now sits fourth. Top five finishes in two of the first three races of the season have him within 10 points of third going into this weekend at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, where he took podiums in Trans Am’s three most recent visits in 2019, 2021, and 2022.

Drissi Motorsports’ next race at the Laguna Seca SpeedTour will take place on May 2-4. On Saturday, TA practice will take place at 9:30AM and qualifying will run at 3PM. Sunday’s race will go green at 1:20PM and will feature either 40 laps or 75 minutes of action. Tickets remain available here; as always, live streaming will be available on both Speed Sport 1 and the Trans Am YouTube channel.

The post Tomy Drissi Scores First Trans Am Podium of 2025 at Sonoma appeared first on Tomy Drissi.

• Tomy Drissi and Drissi Motorsports return to Trans Am action this weekend at Sonoma Raceway
• The California native has a long history of success in his home state, from his first career Trans Am win at Long Beach in 2000 to a podium here at Sonoma three years ago
• Drissi enters the Sonoma SpeedTour ranked fifth in the TA championship through two rounds of the season

Tomy Drissi and Drissi Motorsports return to Trans Am presented by Pirelli action this weekend at Sonoma Raceway for the Sonoma SpeedTour, the third round of the 2025 Trans Am National Championship. Drissi, the 2009 Trans Am champion, and his #8 Trench Shoring Company/Motul/Franklin Road Apparel Chevrolet Camaro are poised to return to action in his home state of California for the first time since the 2022 season.

Drissi has a long and successful history behind the wheel at Sonoma Raceway. Three years ago, he finished second in the track’s most recent National Championship race; it was his fourth podium in a row that season, a run that propelled him to a second place finish in the championship. The track has also played host to all but one of Drissi’s career NASCAR Cup Series starts, including his career-best finish in the series in 2018.

That record should bode well for the Drissi Motorsports squad as the series prepares for back-to-back events in California over the next two weeks. Right now, Drissi sits fifth in TA points after a high-attrition start to the season has kept most of the field tightly packed. With a pair of home state events at Sonoma and Laguna Seca coming up and a proven record at both tracks, he looks to seize the opportunity to convert that experience into valuable championship points and gain ground on the lead.

“I’m thrilled that Trans Am is back in California this season,” said Drissi. “It’s always special to be able to compete in your home state, and from my first Trans Am win at Long Beach in 2000 to a podium in our last visit to Sonoma three years ago, I’ve had great results whenever I’ve raced closer to home. Sonoma is an amazing track that I’ve enjoyed racing at in everything from Trans Am to stock cars, and I’m looking forward to meeting all the great fans! This weekend is a great opportunity for us to run up front, and we plan on making the most of it.”

Action for the TA class kicks off on Friday with a pair of optional test sessions at 9:40AM and 3PM. On Saturday, practice and qualifying will take place at 9:25AM and 3:40PM respectively, while Sunday’s race of 40 laps or 75 minutes will go green at 10:35AM. Tickets remain available here, while live streaming will be available on both Speed Sport 1 and the Trans Am YouTube channel and live timing can be found at gotransam.com.

The post California Native Tomy Drissi Returns to Trans Am Action at Sonoma Raceway appeared first on Tomy Drissi.

• Tomy Drissi and Keith Grant reunite for two-car Drissi Motorsports effort at Road Atlanta SpeedTour
• Drissi has four Trans Am podiums at Road Atlanta in the past six years, as well as a Petit Le Mans win and four podiums in his career
• Team has three-year active podium streak at Road Atlanta thanks to Grant’s third place finish last year

Drissi Motorsports continues its chase for the Trans Am presented by Pirelli championship this weekend at the Road Atlanta SpeedTour, the second event of the 2025 season. Team namesake and 2009 Trans Am champion Tomy Drissi will once again lead the two-car squad into battle in the flagship #8 Trench Shoring Company/Motul/Franklin Road Apparel Chevrolet Camaro, while Keith Grant will return to the seat of the #7 Chevrolet Camaro.

After an exciting drive in the Sebring season opener, which saw him carve his way through the TA field on the way to a fourth place finish, Drissi has his sights set on even better results at Road Atlanta. Over his career, he’s had plenty of success at the Braselton, GA circuit; in Trans Am alone, he has runner-up finishes in 2019, 2020, and 2022, and added a third place in 2023. In the Petit Le Mans, the IMSA season finale and one of the biggest American endurance races of the year, he boasts four podiums, including a Prototype Challenge win in 2017 in the final race for the class.

“Road Atlanta is one of my favorite races on the Trans Am schedule,” said Drissi. “I’ve had a lot of success here in my career, including some of my biggest wins, so it’s always a track I look forward to visiting. We showed at Sebring that we have the speed to fight for the front no matter what happens, and I’m ready to turn it into a spot on the podium on Saturday. Bring it on!”

Grant makes his second start of the season after joining Drissi in the team’s second car for the season opener at Sebring. He also served as Drissi’s teammate at Road Atlanta last year, where his third-place finish allowed the team to extend its active podium streak at the track to three years.

“I’m looking forward to getting back behind the wheel for Drissi Motorsports at Road Atlanta,” said Grant. “We had a great result here last year, and I have some unfinished business after the opener at Sebring. I’m ready to race for another podium this weekend!”

Drissi Motorsports’ track time at the Road Atlanta SpeedTour kicks off on Thursday with a pair of TA class test sessions at 11:50AM and 5:10PM. Friday will see the team practice at 12:05PM and qualify at 5:35PM, while Sunday’s race is set for 40 laps or 75 minutes and will go green at 12:45PM. Tickets to watch the team in action are available now at SpeedTour.net, while the action can be seen live on SPEED SPORT 1 and the Trans Am YouTube channel and live timing can be found at gotransam.com.

The post Drissi Motorsports Sets Sights on Trans Am Podium at Road Atlanta appeared first on Tomy Drissi.

• Tomy Drissi celebrates new primary partnerships with Trench Shoring Co. and Motul with a fourth place finish in 2025 season opener
• Drissi now has five top-fives in the past six Sebring events
• Drissi’s active top-five streak sits at 10 races coming into Road Atlanta

Tomy Drissi and Drissi Motorsports kicked off their pursuit of the 2025 Trans Am presented by Pirelli championship with a fourth place finish in Sunday’s Sebring SpeedTour race at Sebring International Raceway. Drissi and the #8 Trench Shoring Co./Motul Chevrolet Camaro were among the fastest cars on track all weekend, and a late race charge put the team well within reach of opening the season on the TA class podium.

Sebring marked the start of a new era for the Drissi Motorsports team, with the debut of Trench Shoring Co. and Motul as the team’s new sponsors. Drissi celebrated the new partnerships with quick times immediately out of the hauler, posting the fastest lap in Friday’s morning test session and second fastest in the afternoon. In Saturday qualifying, he posted a time of 1:58.977, good enough for fourth on the grid.

If Sunday’s race was any indication, Drissi will be well prepared for any challenge this season throws at him. He settled into the top five after the green flag and ran there comfortably until the double yellow flags flew just before halfway. Unfortunately, while under caution, Drissi was given a penalty that sent him to the back of the field, separating him from the rest of the TA leaders.

Undeterred, Drissi began a methodical charge to the front of the pack as soon as the green flag flew. He carved his way around many of the GT class cars on the restart and continued to pick off cars one by one in the closing laps of the race. Sitting in fifth and back within the lead TA group coming to four laps to go, he made a decisive pass heading into Sunset and made up nearly seven seconds on third in the closing laps before settling into fourth. The result marked the fifth time in the past six Sebring events that Drissi earned a top five finish, as well as his 10^th consecutive top five finish dating back to NOLA Motorsports Park last April.

“I’m very happy to be out of Sebring with another good finish to start the season,” said Drissi. “We had a lot of challenges thrown at us, but the Trench Shoring/Motul Camaro was fast all weekend long and nothing could keep us down. We’re happy to take decent points into Road Atlanta as we look towards another strong season.”

Alongside Drissi, the Drissi Motorsports team also welcomed the return of Keith Grant in the team’s #7 Chevrolet Camaro for the weekend. Grant, a podium finisher at Sebring two years ago as a TA class rookie, qualified sixth, but unfortunately saw his race cut short early. Completing the team’s Sebring efforts was Drissi’s immensely popular 1970 Chaparral Camaro, which competed in SVRA’s Historic Trans Am and remains one of the most popular cars in the SpeedTour paddock.

Next up for Drissi Motorsports is the Road Atlanta SpeedTour on March 20-23. TA class test sessions will take place on Thursday at 11:30AM and 4:30PM, followed by Friday practice at 12:05PM and qualifying at 5:35PM. Saturday’s race will kick off at 12:45PM and feature either 40 laps or 75 minutes, and can be seen live on either the Trans Am YouTube channel or Speed Sport 1. Tickets to watch the team in action are available now at SpeedTour.net, while live timing can be found at gotransam.com.
