Mouser-Sponsored IMSA Team Looks to Keep Momentum in Laguna Seca

April 27, 2022 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry’s leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components™, proudly sponsors the Vasser Sullivan Lexus Racing team and will be cheering them on in the fourth race of the 2022 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season at the Hyundai Monterey Sports Car Championship Presented by Motul at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca (California) on May 1.

Mouser is teaming up with Molex LLC to sponsor both the No. 14 Vasser Sullivan-Lexus RC F GT3 GTD PRO Class and the No. 12 Vasser Sullivan-Lexus RC F GT3 GTD Class entries for the 2022 season. Team drivers for the season include Jack Hawksworth, Kyle Kirkwood and Ben Barnicoat in the No. 14 car and Townsend Bell, Richard Heistand, Frank Montecalvo and Aaron Telitz in the No. 12 car.

The Hyundai Monterey Sports Car Championship offers a long weekend of racing action, including Saturday’s qualifying event, two days of both the Porsche Carrera Cup and the Lamborghini Super Trofeo, and the championship race on Sunday.

Mouser previously sponsored the Vasser Sullivan IndyCar team, seeing the opportunity as an inventive way to communicate its performance-driven business model and promote the newest technologies; since then, the Mouser and Molex relationship with Vasser Sullivan has bred success, having won the Indianapolis 500 and producing multiple wins and podiums with Vasser Sullivan IndyCar.

The 2022 season marks the fourth season Lexus and Vasser Sullivan have partnered together. During that time, the Lexus RC F GT3 has earned seven GTD class wins, 18 podiums and nine pole positions.

After Laguna Seca, the championship continues at the Lexus Grand Prix of Mid-Ohio, followed by six more races before the finale at Motul Petit Le Mans, September 28–October 1 in Atlanta.
