Mouser Electronics, Inc., the New Product Introduction (NPI) pioneer empowering innovation, is proud to sponsor the Vasser Sullivan Lexus Racing team as they head to Plymouth, Wisconsin, for the IMSA Fastlane SportsCar Weekend at the famed Road America course on August 7.
The team is coming off a great showing at the Northeast Grand Prix where drivers Jack Hawksworth and Ben Barnicoat piloted the No. 14 Vasser Sullivan Lexus RC F GT3 PRO to a third-place finish — the team’s sixth podium spot of the season. Additionally, Frankie Montecalvo nabbed his second-consecutive pole position in the No. 12 Vasser Sullivan Lexus RC F GT3 car and went on to lead the GTD class for 114 total laps.
