July 9, 2025

July 9, 2025 – Nitro Motorsports heads to the iconic Watkins Glen International (WGI) this weekend for Round 8 of the Trans Am Series Presented by Pirelli and CUBE 3 Architecture TA2 Series. Fielding another impressive eight-car lineup, Nitro Motorsports is ready to take on the 3.4-mile, 11-turn road course steeped in American motorsport history.

Leading the charge for the team will be Thomas Annunziata, who currently sits second in the National Driver’s Championship following a strong point haul at Road America. With multiple wins to his credit, Annunziata is one of the favorites heading into the weekend. He’ll be joined by Sam Corry and Julian DaCosta, who hold fourth and fifth in the TA2 championship standings, as both drivers have been at the front of the field in 2025. In the Rookie Championship, Corry, DaCosta, and Gian Buffomante are all in the hunt, sitting third, fourth, and fifth, respectively, and they look to climb the leaderboard this weekend.

The Nitro Motorsports driver roster for Watkins Glen also includes Cale Phillips, Seamus McKendree, and Boris Said Sr., a formidable group determined to make an impact at one of North America’s most legendary circuits. Veteran Cale Phillips, who has scored multiple TA2 Pro/Am podiums in 2025, will be searching for another trip to the podium steps in 2025 and continue to add to Nitro Motorsports results resume.

Team owner Nick Tucker shared his excitement for the event. “Watkins Glen is a classic on the schedule and an important round for the team. We’ve had strong results so far this season, and with eight talented drivers pushing hard, I’m confident we’ll be fighting up front all weekend. It’s fantastic to see so many of our drivers in the championship hunt, and we can’t wait to get rolling.”

The weekend kicks off Friday with optional testing and official practice sessions. Saturday will feature split-group qualifying, setting the grid for the 30-lap feature race scheduled to go green at 1:05 PM ET. Fans can catch all the action live on speedsport1.com.
