Trans Am TA2 Driver Michele Abbate is back in a bowtie and set to compete full-time in her second year of the National Tour Schedule with Showtime Motorsports. She has announced her 2023 Co-Title Sponsors are Ghost Energy (www.ghostenergy.com) and Lucas Oil (www.lucasoil.com) with a brand new eye-catching livery on the #30 TA2 Chevy Camaro. In addition, associate sponsors Scosche, Shift Up Now, and PRYDE continue to support Abbate in her professional racing career.
“It is so gratifying to have such amazing partners who have continued to believe in me and support me on and off the race track”, Abbate shares. “To be a part of the GHOST Energy family and represent them in the motorsports industry is truly a dream come true, and to have Lucas Oil, an industry leader in all things automotive speaks volumes to our program. I am also very fortunate to be continuing my partnerships with Scosche, Shift Up Now, PRYDE, RECARO, Sabelt, and Arai. Each of my partners help me stay on the race track and I wouldn’t be where I am without each and everyone of them”, Michele explains.
The 2023 season opener kicks off this week at Sebring International Raceway with 47 TA2 cars entered. Abbate was also recently announced as one of 5 female recipients of the Parella Motorsport Holdings Driver Diversity Scholarship for her 2023 TA2 effort.
Be sure to keep your eyes out for the Showtime Motorsports team in both the TA and TA2 classes – it’s going to be an awesome season! You can also catch the season premiere of the new MAVTV “Road to Glory” TV Show on March 16th!
