Second Place in GT — VIR & Indianapolis
The 2026 season has been a statement year for the #47. Back-to-back second place finishes in GT at VIRginia International Raceway and Indianapolis pushed the Dark Horse crew to the top step's shadow — and proved the pace is real, lap after lap, against the deepest field in the class.
Every result belongs to the whole crew: preparation in the paddock, calm calls on the radio, and a car that keeps getting faster each round.
Mission Spotlight
"It's not just the laps completed — it's the lives impacted."
Dark Horse Racing races for something bigger than trophies. Through Freedom Coffee Co.'s reverse sponsorship for fallen hero Dustin Harrison, and our partnership with GallantFew, the pit wall is a front door for veterans finding their next mission. Every race weekend is an invitation.
Core Values
What We Race For
Four values drive every decision in the garage and every lap on track.
Legacy
Four decades of road racing — from WERA motorcycles in 1985 through HSR, SVRA, SCCA, Grand-Am and the Trans Am Series. What we build is meant to last.
Commitment
We show up prepared, we finish what we start, and we race every lap like it's the last one. Boldness is a habit, not a moment.
Service
Built by combat veterans, naval aviators and engineers — we race to serve those who served, and to honor those who gave everything.
Speed
Preparation creates pace. Every detail in the garage, every debrief, every lap is engineered toward one thing: speed on race day.

The Road Atlanta Story
A transmission reduced to 3rd and 4th gears. A field of full-time pros. And a father-and-son podium that the Gluck family will never forget. The 2023 SGT round at Road Atlanta is the race that defines how this team fights.
