Guy Cosmo returns to Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course driving the No. 47 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup in the ALMS Challenge class as part of the featured American Le Mans Series Acura Sports Car Challenge this Saturday, August 8. Cosmo will once again team with John Baker for Orbit Racing.

No stranger to the challenges of this natural terrain road course, Cosmo enjoyed his first American Le Mans Series win at Mid-Ohio driving the LMP2 Mazda prototype. The win contributed to his Rookie of the Year title that season. The track and the weekend will provide a welcome respite for Cosmo and Baker following last month's disappointment at Lime Rock.

"Lime Rock was a tough pill to swallow," noted Cosmo. "It was a challenge going in, as I had to pull double duty between the ALMS event and the Koni Challenge race at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama. Unfortunately, the No. 47 Porsche didn't want to cooperate with my schedule."
