Kirkwood will co-drive with full-timers Aaron Telitz and Frankie Montecalvo and endurance-race extra Parker Thompson in the team’s #12 car, which competes in the GTD class in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.
Kirkwood, who will be entering his second season of IndyCar racing, excelled in his cameo roles for VSR in IMSA in 2022. He subbed for the injured Jack Hawksworth in the team’s GTD Pro Lexus at Belle Isle, Detroit, and won with co-driver Ben Barnicoat. In the season finale, Petit Le Mans, Kirkwood joined the recovered Hawksworth and Barnicoat, and the trio clinched class honors.
