Cameron brings championship winning knowledge of the Acura ARX-05 to MSR\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Pataskala, Ohio (16 November 2020) –\u00a0After securing its second IMSA championship, Meyer Shank Racing (MSR) looks forward to the 2021 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season.<\/p>\n

Meyer Shank Racing is pleased to announce that Dane Cameron has joined the team to share the full-season driving duties with Oliver Pla starting with the 2021 Rolex 24 At Daytona in January.<\/p>\n

The three-time (2014\/GTD, 2016, 2019) IMSA WeatherTech Champion brings three years worth of experience with the Acura ARX-05 to the effort as he and MSR join forces in 2021.<\/p>\n

Having been a part of the development program for the Acura DPi since its inception in 2018, Cameron has captured three\u00a0victories onboard the Acura ARX-05 and nine podium finishes. The 2019 season saw Cameron claim the\u00a0championship title after scoring three victories and four podiums.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited to join Meyer Shank Racing and continue my relationship with Acura and HPD,\u201d said Cameron. \u201cI have a lot of experience with the ARX-05 and I know that car inside and out. It\u2019s been really fun to be a part of the development of that car from the very beginning. It\u2019s proven to be a race winner and a championship winner in 2019. I will certainly do my best to bring everything that I\u2019ve learned about this car to the team and make sure that MSR and everyone gets up to speed quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cameron and Shank have been IMSA regulars competing in the same events for several seasons, but the tie-up marks the first opportunity for the two to work together as the Ohio-based team once again looks to fight for overall victories in 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve known Mike (Shank) for quite a while now in IMSA but I haven\u2019t had the opportunity to drive for him,\u201d continued Cameron. \u201cI admire Mike\u2019s passion for the sport. We\u2019ve always talked about putting a program together and it\u2019s cool that we finally worked it out and I\u2019ll get to drive for him next year with the Acura DPi.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very excited to have Dane join us next year,\u201d said Shank. \u201cHe\u2019s proven that he is a top contender in one of the toughest classes out there. Just like what we (MSR) did with the Acura NSX, he did for the Acura ARX-05. He developed that car and made it a championship winning car. We\u2019re happy to have him onboard and hopefully work towards bringing home another championship for Acura.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cameron and Pla are set to drive the full 2021 IMSA season with MSR also having announced AJ Allmendinger\u2019s return to the Rolex 24 for the 15th year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
