Acura Meyer Shank Racing’s liveries for the 2025 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship were revealed today by the team and by Honda Racing Corporation USA (HRC US), as both Acura ARX-06s will carry distinct visual identities and primary sponsors.
The red, white, and blue No.60 Acura will carry primary sponsorship from enterprise AI software company, askROI.
Tom Blomqvist and Colin Braun will reunite after finishing runner-up in the 2023 IMSA GTP championship, joined at Daytona by six-time IndyCar Series champion Scott Dixon and Meyer Shank Racing IndyCar driver Felix Rosenqvist.
HRC US, which will engineer the No.93 Acura, revealed Phillips 66 Lubricants (part of the ConocoPhillips energy company) as the primary sponsor of the new entry – part of a “season-long sponsorship and research and development deal,” according to HRC US.
Phillips 66 will supply engine oil to both Acuras as part of its deal, extending an all-encompassing partnership with Acura service centers and the road car brand in the United States – and also provides Phillips 66 with a ‘rolling laboratory’ to develop and refine lubricants for race and road cars.
The white, black, and red No.93 will be driven by new Acura factory drivers Renger van der Zande and Nick Yelloly, three-time and defending IndyCar champion Alex Palou, and Honda works driver Kakunoshin “Kaku” Ohta.
HRC US President David Salters commented on the new partnership: “We are delighted to partner with the world class Phillips 66 Lubricants. This collaboration allows us to develop our people and technology further in a new era of running our pinnacle ARX-06 electrified race car. We are excited to work together with Phillips 66 Lubricants and use our cutting-edge electrified Acura ARX-06 racing car together as an agile test bed for the best innovations.
“Importantly this partnership helps us develop new commercial skills and opportunities within HRC US and our HRC US New Business Division.”
