Forte Racing Powered by US RaceTronics broke through to earn its first-ever GTD victory in the IMSA SportsCar Championship’s season finale at Petit Le Mans.
The #78 Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2, driven by Misha Goikhberg, Patrick Liddy and endurance team-mate Loris Spinelli endured a trio of drive-through penalties throughout the 10-hour contest, including two with roughly two hours remaining. Spinelli was charged with changing lanes during a restart procedure and was handed the first penalty. The second came after a run-in with the #Heart of Racing Aston Martin Vantage GT3, while the third came for being outside the pit stall.
Additionally, it marked four top five results over the last five rounds after not scoring any in the opening six races. In the end, the combination of results vaulted Goikhberg and Spinelli to fifth in the GTD standings to close out the year. “It's been roughly a year when the seed started to be planted for a program for this year,” Goikhberg said. “There's been a lot of frustrating races where we were almost there, and something always seemed to go wrong.
