A trip to Sebring International Raceway raises the curtain on the 13th season of Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America in 2025. With more than 30 cars entered across the series’ four classes for a pair of 50-minute races as part of the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring weekend, the action should be fast and furious.

The “raging bulls” on parade in the IMSA-sanctioned championship are identical Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO2 race cars, which pack a punch with more than 600 horsepower on offer.

A total of 14 different teams and nine different Lamborghini dealerships (Palm Beach, Austin, Broward, Hawaii, Miami, Philadelphia, Newport Beach, Charlotte, Greenwich) are represented in this year’s field. The dealerships provide support to the team programs.

The season features six race weekends, five alongside WeatherTech Championship events held at Sebring, WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, Watkins Glen International, Road America and Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

The sixth weekend comes as part of the Lamborghini Super Trofeo World Finals, held in Lamborghini’s home country of Italy at the Misano Circuit. The November weekend also features European and Asian series competitors alongside their North American counterparts.

Class structure remains unchanged from 2024, with these parameters in place:

Pro: one or two drivers in each car, both drivers must be rated Gold or Silver in the most recent FIA driver categorization;
Pro-Am: two drivers in each car, one Gold/Silver rated and the other Bronze;
Am: one or two drivers in each car, both must be Bronze rated;
LB Cup: one or two drivers in each car, both must be Bronze rated and meet additional LB Cup requirements.

Each race also features a mandatory pit stop, occurring during a prescribed 10-minute pit window opened midway through each race.

A minimum pit stop time (clocked from a car entering pit lane to when it exits) covers off both single and two-driver requirements, which a features slightly longer minimum stop for single-driver entries.

There’s a bevy of championship-winning drivers and teams on display set to compete in 2025, as well.

Perpetual championship challengers Wayne Taylor Racing, a 14-time series champion and past World Finals champion, seek to regain their Pro title throne with two entries this year.

Representing Lamborghini Palm Beach, their two Pro class entries of Danny Formal and Hampus Ericsson in the No. 1 Lamborghini and Nick Persing in the No. 8 Lamborghini should be in the mix.

Formal is a two-time North America Pro champion (2022 and 2023), Ericsson a World Finals race winner, and Persing a six-time ProAm winner stepping up to Pro.

Defending Pro class champions TR3 Racing, representing Lamborghini Miami, have a six-pack of entries across all four classes including the No. 29 Lamborghini Pro class car for Elias De La Torre IV and Will Bamber.

TR3 is one of two teams, along with eXclaim Motorsport Group, in fielding a car in each class.

The eXclaim four-car effort will feature the RAFA Racing Team branding across its cars, representing Lamborghini Austin in Pro, Pro-Am and Am and Lamborghini Greenwich in LB Cup.

Three-time 2025 IMSA VP Racing SportsCar Challenge GSX winner Kiko Porto (No. 2 Lamborghini, Pro) and 2015 Rolex 24 GTD winner Cameron Lawrence (No. 68 Lamborghini, Pro-Am) are two drivers to watch from this stable, as well as an all-female lineup in another car with Lindsey Brewer and Jem Hepworth (No. 81 Lamborghini, Am).

ANSA Motorsports (Lamborghini Broward), World Speed Motorsports (Lamborghini Hawaii) and 2024 Pro-Am champions Forty7 Motorsports (Lamborghini Philadelphia) also have title-contending potential.

Colin Queen and Lamborghini Super Trofeo Junior Driver Enzo Geraci share its No. 4 Lamborghini.

Multi-time Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring winner Scott Huffaker and inaugural IMSA 3D Scholarship recipient Jaden Conwright spearhead World Speed’s No. 22 entry. Al Morey and Keawn Tandon share Forty7’s No. 77 Lamborghini.

Pro-Am features two-time Am class champion Anthony McIntosh stepping up a class, now sharing the No. 69 WTR entry with Brendon Leitch, a past Super Trofeo Europe Pro champion. They won the Pro-Am World Championship at the World Finals in 2024.

The Flying Lizard (Lamborghini Newport Beach) pair of entries figure to contend; both pairings of Andy Lee and Slade Stewart in the fan favorite, pink unicorn No. 14 Huarcan and Marc Miller and Paul Nemschoff in their No. 41 car banked wins in 2024. ANSA’s Pro-Am pair of Nicky Hays and Antoine Comeau (No. 30 Lamborghini) and TR3’s Conrad Geis and Jason Hart (No. 67 Lamborghini) are also worth watching.

Precision Performance Motorsports (Lamborghini Palm Beach) figures to contend too with 2021 Am champion Bryan Ortiz sharing the No. 47 Lamborghini with Dominic Starkweather. Kaizen Autosport (Lamborghini Charlotte) completes the eight-car class with Wyatt Foster and Seth Henry in the No. 44 entry.

The 11-car Am class is the most populous. Glenn McGee shares WTR’s No. 10 Am class Lamborghini with Graham Doyle, and McGee seeks his third straight Am class championship. Beyond WTR, TR3 has a class-high three cars.

Forty7 (Lamborghini Greenwich) has Jackson Lee and Christopher Tasca sharing its No. 88 Lamborghini. Other teams to watch here include One Motorsports, Rearden Racing, MLT Motorsports, Precision Performance, and eXclaim.

Last year’s LB Cup champion Nick Groat (No. 57 One Motorsports entry) returns to the category as one of six cars entered from six different teams (TR3, Forty7, ANSA, Forte, eXclaim).

Teams have two 45-minute practice sessions Wednesday before qualifying Thursday morning. Races are at 5:55 p.m. ET Thursday and 5:05 p.m. ET Friday, streaming on Peacock, IMSA.tv, the IMSA Official YouTube channel and Lamborghini Squadra Corse YouTube channel.
