Kellymoss returns to IMSA WeatherTech championship full-time in 2027

After a hiatus in 2023, team Kellymoss is set to return to full-time competition in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship for the 2027 season. Michael Clark will make his championship debut in the Grand Touring Daytona (GTD) class, driving the #17 Porsche 911 GT3 R alongside Colin Braun. The team will also field Kyle Marcelli in the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup rounds, with the fourth driver for the Rolex 24 At Daytona to be announced later.

Kellymoss last raced full-time in the WeatherTech Championship in 2023 under the Kelly-Moss with Riley name, securing a GTD class victory at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. As part of their partnership with Riley, the team is relocating its operations from Wisconsin to North Carolina.

Team Principal Andy Kilcoyne expressed excitement about the return to the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, praising Michael's and Colin's development over the past year. Clark will make his IMSA debut in the GTD class following a season racing with Braun in the Porsche GT3 car. Braun, with an impressive 174 IMSA starts and three series championships, will join Clark for the 2027 season.

Marcelli, known for his GTD and PC wins, will return to IMSA action after competing in Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America in 2026. The team's collaboration with Riley, a continuation of their success with Porsche, is highlighted as a key ingredient in the program's success. Both Clark and Braun expressed enthusiasm about the opportunity to compete at the highest level in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.
