What is Lone Star Le Mans?
The Lone Star Le Mans is part of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC), one of the most prestigious racing series in the world. The event pits elite endurance racing teams against each other in high-performance prototype and GT racing cars on the world-class Circuit of The Americas track.
Unlike traditional racing events, endurance races test not only speed, but also strategy, teamwork and reliability. The teams compete against each other over extended periods of time, creating dramatic moments, unexpected leadership changes and exciting finishes.
For racing enthusiasts, it is an opportunity to watch the same championship that includes the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans without having to travel abroad.
Generations of Americans have gathered to celebrate a sport that reflects that independent spirit and passion for competition. This passion is felt all over the world and that is why the FIA WEC team is using this pride to offer a limited time “Buy One Get One” offer in honor of Independence Day. From June 27th through July 11th, racing superfans and newbies alike can visit the COTA website to redeem this special offer and attend one of the world’s premier motorsports events right in Austin’s backyard.
