Five of the past six USF Pro 2000 champions will now have made it to the top level of INDYCAR with 2023 champion Myles Rowe set to continue to hone his skills in INDY NXT with ABEL Motorsports with Force Indy.
The USF Pro Fall Combine will feature three test sessions per day for each series with Timing & Scoring available on the USF Pro Championships App and respective series’ websites. A multitude of drivers will be sampling the next step on their ladder including current USF2000 champion Max Garcia and USF Juniors champion Max Taylor.
In addition to the on-track sessions, drivers, parents and teams will take part in a Sponsorship 101 seminar hosted by CHARGE, a sponsorship consulting agency which has helped over 50 athletes in INDYCAR, NASCAR and the NFL. The seminar will be led by CHARGE founder and motorsports veteran Ken Ungar, a long-time consultant to Honda in their racing efforts as well as a former top executive at INDYCAR.
