The Prototype Sprint Series Association presented by Hankook (PSSA) was founded by Parella Motorsports Holdings (PMH) in 2023, as a series designed to host prototype race cars in a sprint race format at some of the most iconic road courses in America.
“We’re very excited to launch the Prototype Sprint Series Association presented by Hankook,” said Tony Parella, CEO of PMH, as the series launched. “This series will fill an important void and provide racers with another opportunity to get on track. Whether they’re looking to race close to home for just a weekend or compete for a national championship—there will be a place for everyone.”
With events planned coast to coast, racers will be able to contend for the PSSA East or PSSA West championship, or take on everyone and race across the country. Nearly 20 chassis will be eligible for competition, and drivers must hold either an SVRA Competition License or SVRA Super License (or equivalent), depending on which class they compete in. Weekends feature five on-track sessions, including two feature races, and Hankook racing tires are required for all on-track activity.
During an immensely popular inaugural season in 2023, PSSA attracted competitors from four different countries and 13 states across the USA. In 2024, the series will increase from eight to 12 events, expanding to include PSSA East and PSSA West championship titles, and awarding each champion a $10,000 prize in addition to several product awards. A National champion will also be crowned during the season finale at Circuit of The Americas, with that driver awarded a limited-edition Bell Racing gold helmet.
Additionally, PSSA will debut a Constructor’s Championship in 2024 to recognize the manufacturer that accumulates the most points throughout the season.
