RAFA Racing prepares for packed midsummer run

RAFA Racing Team will field six different entries across four championships during the next three weeks as the organization prepares for one of the busiest stretches of its 2026 season.

The action begins this weekend at Watkins Glen International, where Kiko Porto and Varun Choksey will contest the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge race in the No. 12 Toyota GR Supra GT4 EVO2. The event marks the first of two Michelin Pilot Challenge appearances for the team during the upcoming run.

RAFA Racing will also field a pair of entries in Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America at Watkins Glen. Jem Hepworth and Tyler Gonzalez will share the No. 2 Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2 in the Pro class, while Ian Porter and Chloe Chambers will compete in the No. 81 Pro-Am entry.

The following week, Kyle Steckly returns to the No. 2 RAFA Racing Toyota Camry for the ARCA Menards Series event at Chicagoland Speedway on July 3.

“The logistics behind a stretch like this are significant,” said RAFA Racing Team boss Kevin Conway. “Our crew is preparing cars, equipment, and personnel for multiple championships at the same time, and that takes a tremendous amount of effort behind the scenes. It’s a credit to everyone involved with the team.”

The three-week stretch concludes at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park on July 10-12. Porto and Choksey will again represent the team in IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge, while Westin Workman and Rafael Martinez continue RAFA Racing’s VP Racing SportsCar Challenge campaign aboard the Toyota GR Supra GT4 EVO2.
