Another busy year is ahead for Porsche specialists PK Sport. As well as their services for road going cars, they're undertaking another full calendar of international motor racing in 2003.
The season will once again revolve around the three major sportscar events at Sebring, Le Mans and Petit Le Mans. However, these outings will be supplemented with three further American Le Mans Series events as well as at least two rounds of the FIA GT Championship. PK Sport have already competed in and won the Brazilian 1000 Mile Enduro at Interlagos just over a week ago. PK Sport boss man, Mike Pickup commented, "There is still a possibility that we will complete in the entire American Le Mans series and whilst this is a serious possibility it is likely that we will settle for 5 rounds unless we get significant backing from a sponsor or drivers who want a full championship campaign. We are however actively looking at this which will require us to find a suitable base in the U.S."
The provisional calendar with some estimated dates is as follows:
* Brazilian 1000 Miles - Interlagos, Brazil January 26th * ALMS 51st Annual Mobil1 Twelve Hours of Sebring March 13th to 15th * ALMS Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez (2.75 Miles) April 4th to 6th * Le Mans - Official Test May 4th * ALMS European Round, Venue TBC May 17th 18th (est.) * Le Mans - 24 Hours June 14th 15th (est.) * FIA GT - Donington Park June 29th * FIA GT - Spa 24 Hours July 26th 27th * ALMS Grand Prix Americas September 26th 27th * ALMS Audi Presents Petit Le Mans October 15th to 18th
