RACING NEWS - Esses Racing Joins Ginetta as North American Sales Agent
Continuing its North American expansion, Ginetta establishes a new partnership with the motorsport leader out of Texas, Esses Racing, as one of the few selected sales agents in the United States.
August 5, 2022
For the past six decades, Ginetta has helped drivers focus on a route to international motorsport platforms through their series and establishing relationships with like-minded teams such as Esses Racing, who share this vision and maintain a successful track record in several series nationwide. Esses will be joining Ginetta in bringing new drivers and seasoned racers into the fold with the purpose-built and reliable G56 platform.
Founded in 2019 by a core group of motorsport professionals from NASCAR, IndyCar, IMSA, and Formula 1, Esses Racing orchestrates their expertise to help drivers at every step of the way including driver development, track day support, competition prep, vehicle maintenance, repair, and logistics, keeping drivers focused on what they do best.
Since their inception, Esses has been competing in championships where they are regularly on the top step of the podium. Most recently, they have stepped into GT racing with GT Celebration as well as the Yokohama Drivers Cup, where they are proudly leading the championship. 2023 also looks to be a breakout year as Esses will be fielding cars in SRO North America while adding GT championships throughout the United States.
Esses operates from a 15,000 square foot building, 15 miles south of the famed Circuit of the Americas, neighboring Eagles Canyon Raceway and Cresson MotorSport Ranch. Testing is slated to begin later this year at all three locations leading up to entry in SRO for the 2024 season with the G56 GT4.
Ginetta’s 5 single-make series racing ladder, recognized as some of the best manufacturer-run competitions from the G40 Juniors to GT4 Supercup along with manufacturing cars in endurance and GT championships globally, is an expert pairing with Esses’ racing prowess, certain to be a winning combination and the mutual enthusiasm is mounting.
As Dave O'Neill, Former F1 Team Manager and Current Esses Partner and General Manager, states:
“We are very excited to become an agent for Ginetta North America and the partnership aligns with our expansion. Ginetta has a great history in motorsports and as the sole agent in Texas, we are excited to offer new customers the accessibility to get behind the wheel of a Ginetta and experience the legacy of this brand as well as service and support existing customers.
With the versatile G56 platform, we are excited to introduce new motorsports customers to the exceptional G56 GTA as well as customers wanting to race in professional championships with the SRO homologated G56 GT4.”
