Pirelli WC – HRD in the TCR class with three Golf cars

Heinlein Racing Development announced its debut in the Pirelli World Challenge TCR class in 2018. The team will be campaigning three Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR cars for Dwight Merriman, Michael Hurczyn and Nate Vincent.

Merriman is taking on the challenge of professional Touring Car racing after years of club racing and a successful campaign in the US Radical Cup last year. Hurczyn and Vincent will be piloting the two remaining cars that are the fruits of a partnership between FCP Euro and HRD for the season.

FCP Euro is an online retailer of Genuine, OE, and OEM auto parts for European cars, specializing in Volkswagen, Audi, BMW, Volvo, Mercedes, and Porsche parts, and is making its professional racing debut in 2018.

Founder and principal of HRD, Tivadar Heinlein explained: "It's time for us to be back in Pro-Racing under our own HRD banner. We are already in high gear prepping for the season, bringing together a blend of well-respected, veteran team members and some young and enthusiastic people to create the right balance for a successful season."
