Team continues with a four car effort for Rounds 8 and 9 of USF Pro 2000 Championship
Elkhart Lake, Wis. (June 14, 2023) – Turn 3 Motorsport will race at the famed—and newly repaved—Road America road course in Wisconsin this weekend as the team reaches the midway point of the 2023 USF Pro 2000 Championship Presented by Cooper Tires. T3M has had great success at America’s National Park of Speed in previous years; the team claimed the Cooper Tires Pole Award and brought home a second place finish with INDY NXT driver Josh Green on the 4.014-mile, 14-turn road course last year and won the 2020 season opener in a dominant fashion with INDY NXT driver Danial Frost.
Turn 3 will once again run a fourth car this weekend with the addition of French Canadian driver Louka St-Jean driving the #3 Planiform / Proservin Construction car alongside teammates Michael d’Orlando, Jonathan Browne, and Jackson Lee.

“I’m really looking forward to getting out at Road America this weekend,” said Browne. “It is one of my favorite tracks to drive on with a really nice flow to it. The new surface should also spice things up a bit, so we will be trying to get on top of that straight away.”

“I’m really looking forward to getting back to Elkhart Lake this weekend,” said Lee. “The newly paved course at Road America means that speeds should be fast and the racing should be exciting. I love the high commitment corners and the close racing. Road America is truly one of my favorite tracks of the entire season. Every time I race there I gain more and more confidence, and I can’t wait to give it my all this weekend.”
The weekend begins with a pre-event test day tomorrow ahead of the two-race weekend for the USF Pro 2000 series. Practice and the first of two qualifying sessions will take place on Friday followed by another qualifying session and Race 1 on Saturday.
