Acura has been hit with the biggest weight handicap of all GTP manufacturers for the second round of the IMSA SportsCar Championship, the 12 Hours of Sebring, on 18 March ⬇️

Acura, Cadillac, Porsche and BMW all had to adhere to the same minimum weight limit of 1030kg for the first race for IMSA's new breed of hybrid-powered LMDh cars, the Daytona 24 Hours in January.

This marks a 24kg increase over the season opener and means the ARX-06 will be 16kg heavier than the rebranded Cadillac V-Series.R, which will now be the lightest car in the category at 1038kg. The power figures for Sebring have also been adjusted, although in this case Acura has received the biggest boost.
