Parker Chase and Harry Gottsacker go Racing in the #991 TRG Porsche this Weekend in IMSA WeatherTech Action at COTA — Info and Media Opportunity

Parker Chase and Harry Gottsacker are young men in a hurry. These Texas teens (Austin-area) have already achieved great success in national — and international — auto racing, having scored multiple top-five results in a variety of series including Pirelli World Challenge, where Chase was rookie of the year, in 2016.

Both Chase and Gottsacker move to the elite IMSA WeatherTech series this weekend as they make their much-anticipated debut behind the wheel of The Racers Group’s #991 Porsche GT3-R at Circuit of the Americas (COTA), in what can only be termed an opportunity of a lifetime. Team CEO, Kevin Buckler, is one of the most successful drivers and team owners in North American sportscar history.

Parker and Harry are ready for the big time and ready for media and ready for one of the most challenging circuits in the world in COTA.
