Forgeline teams will be starting up front at Daytona!
Alexander Sims has qualified the No.3 Pratt Miller Motorsports Chevrolet Corvette GT3.R on the GTD PRO pole position for the start of the 2026 IMSA Weathertech SportsCar Championship's Rolex 24 at Daytona, while Nate Cicero has qualified the No.13 McCumbee McAleer Racing Ford Mustang GT4 on the GS pole position for the start of 2026 IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge season at Daytona.
Based upon the Chevrolet C8 Corvette Z06 and sharing the road car’s aluminum chassis, Alexander's Corvette GT3.R is powered by a version of the Z06’s 5.5L DOHC LT6 V8 engine mated to a 6-speed sequential transmission. It rides on a motorsports-specific double-wishbone suspension system and a motorsports-specific 6-piston front/4-piston rear AP Racing braking system with unique cooling and quick-change capabilities. Pratt Miller worked with the team at Forgeline Motorsports for several years to develop an application-specific version of Forgeline’s center-locking one piece forged monoblock SS1R-GT wheel that was engineered to deliver optimized performance metrics (in terms of mass, deflection, strength, and durability) specifically for the new Corvette GT3.R, and every Chevrolet C8 Corvette Z06 GT3.R competes on 18×12.5/18×13 Forgeline one piece forged monoblock SS1R-GT wheels finished in Gloss Black.
Nate’s factory-direct Ford Mustang GT4 is built in partnership with Multimatic Motorsports. It’s powered by a Coyote-based V8 engine developed by Ford Performance mated to a paddle-shifted Holinger dog-ring gearbox and rides on an upgraded competition-approved suspension package, Multimatic DSSV dampers, Brembo brakes, Pirelli slicks, and 18×11 Forgeline one piece forged monoblock GS1R wheels.
