Drissi Motorsports Aims for Trans Am Podium at Road Atlanta This Weekend
March 15, 2026
Drissi Motorsports teammates Tomy Drissi and Simon Gregg will be back in action this weekend as Trans Am returns to Road Atlanta
Drissi’s Road Atlanta resume includes four Trans Am podiums in five years from 2019-23 and an IMSA Petit Le Mans victory in 2017
Gregg’s consistent Trans Am record at Road Atlanta includes 11 top five finishes in 12 races from 2011 to 2020
2009 Trans Am national champion Tomy Drissi and 2012 national champion Simon Gregg are ready to return to action this weekend at Road Atlanta, as Trans Am continues its historic 60 th anniversary season at one of the series’ mainstay venues. Both Drissi and Gregg have excelled at the Braselton, GA-based track over their years, and they’ll look to kickstart their chase for the 2026 championship with their sights set on returning to the podium.
Drissi has an extensive record of success at Road Atlanta across multiple series. From 2019 to 2023, he finished on the Trans Am podium four times, including three runner-up finishes in 2019, 2020, and 2022. In IMSA’s season-ending Petit Le Mans, he took a victory in the Prototype Challenge class in 2017 alongside John Falb and Garett Grist, as well as two second place finishes and a third place.
“Road Atlanta has been very special to me over the years,” said Drissi. “I’ve been on the podium here a lot in multiple series, including my Petit Le Mans win, so it’s always one of my favorite tracks to visit. The team has been working hard to find some more speed in both cars, and we think we have a great weekend ahead of us.”
Gregg has his own fond memories of Road Atlanta, having locked up his 2012 Trans Am championship at the track thanks to finishes of second and seventh in a doubleheader event. From 2010 to 2020, that seventh place run marked the only time that Gregg finished outside of the top five in a Trans Am race in Braselton, one of the
most consistent performances for a driver at any track in the series.
“I’m looking forward to getting back to Road Atlanta,” said Gregg. “The track has always suited me very well, and it’ll always be special to me as the place where I earned the Trans Am title back in 2012. We didn’t have the start to the season that we wanted in Sebring, but I can’t think of anywhere better to bounce back than here.”
Drissi Motorsports’ weekend at Road Atlanta will kick off with a pair of optional test sessions on Friday at 10:05AM and 3:25PM. The TA class will practice and qualify on Saturday at 9:35AM and 3:40PM, respectively, before taking the green flag for 40 laps or 75 minutes of racing on Sunday at 12:10PM. Tickets remain available, while Racing America will offer free live streaming, with coverage starting on Sunday at 11:30AM.
Following Road Atlanta, Drissi Motorsports will turn its attention to Sonoma Raceway on April 23-26 for the first doubleheader of the 2026 season. To keep up with Tomy Drissi, follow @tomydrissi on Instagram and Facebook, and visit www.tomydrissi.com.
