DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Current Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America championship points leader, Will Bamber, has officially joined XO9 Racing for the remainder of the 2026 Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America season. Bamber will compete in the Pro class, partnering with Darius Trinka, beginning at the upcoming round at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.
The pairing marks an exciting new chapter as the duo targets a strong push toward the championship in one of the most competitive categories in the series.
Bamber, a multiple race winner and regular podium contender, arrives off the back of standout results on the international stage, including victory at the Lamborghini Super Trofeo World Finals.
He transitions into the XO9 Racing program with immediate ambitions to continue fighting for wins and the overall Pro title. The move brings together two top-category drivers, with Trinka—who has often competed solo or within Pro-Am—now joining forces with Bamber, forming what is expected to be a formidable pairing.
Will Bamber commented:
“I want to thank everyone who has been a part of my journey thus far. This new opportunity has me feeling completely refreshed and reinvigorated as we continue the mission toward the Pro class title. Darius is a brilliant driver, and XO9 Racing is a team I’ve been watching closely for some time. They have fantastic people in place, and everything points in the right direction. There are a lot of natural synergies, and with existing relationships already within the team, this feels like the perfect fit moving forward. I can’t wait to get started.”
Tadas Karlinskas, owner of XO9 Racing, commented:
“We were looking to strengthen the pro car after Sebring, but Will definitely wasn’t on our bingo card for 2026! We’re really excited about this pairing, and we hope to put a car in their hands that can bring us the championship in our debut season.
The new partnership will debut at WeatherTech Raceway, where Bamber and Trinka aim to make an immediate impact as they begin their championship charge together.
