The GT field also sees the return of St. Pete revelation Daniel Mancinelli, in the TR3 Racing Ferrari, with a to-be-announced driver and car for DIME Racing, which could make its season debut.

With Alec Udell listed in GT, the GTA class sees an eight-car field, with all of teams and drivers from St. Pete returning.
