Blake Mount – Driver of the No. 7 Performance Tech Liger JSP3



“We are heading into Mid-Ohio on quite the high note. With the help from the incredible guys at Performance Tech, Max Hanratty and I placed the car 4th in Sebring. We are looking to only move that place forward this weekend.



We’ve got all of the in-car troubles from Sebring answered and I know that I don’t speak for myself when I say we are coming into the race weekend feeling confident.


I can’t begin to thank SHR, Sobel Westex, and Hotels.com enough for their continued and unrelenting support of my season in the Prototype Challenge.”
