Lexington, Ohio (9 May 2022) –<\/strong> Taylor Hagler\u00a0will continue\u00a0her 2022 IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge (IMPC) campaign\u00a0this weekend as she heads back across the country for the Mid-Ohio 120\u00a0on Saturday, May 14 (4:00pm ET, Peacock).<\/p>\n

Leading the 2022 IMPC championship by 30 points, Taylor\u00a0Hagler and her Hyundai co-driver Michael Lewis will\u00a0combine in the No. 1 Bryan Herta Autosport Hyundai Elantra N TCR\u00a0at the 2.258-mile Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course for the fourth round of the 2022\u00a0IMSA\u00a0season.<\/p>\n

Having just scored a top five finish at Hyundai\u2019s home event at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca two weeks ago, Hagler is eager to head back to Mid-Ohio – a track that has been a highlight for the Texas native through her young career.<\/p>\n

In 2020, Hagler raced to a second place podium finish in race 1 at the track, and backed that up by earning her first-ever IMSA career pole position for the second race of the weekend.<\/p>\n

During the 2021 IMPC championship season, Hagler raced to the podium again at Mid-Ohio with a second\u00a0place finish\u00a0with Lewis in the\u00a0No. 77 Hyundai Veloster N TCR.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited to be going back to Mid-Ohio, especially with how we performed there last year,\u201d said Hagler. \u201cThe Elantra has been running great this year, and I want to continue with what Michael (Lewis) and I have set out to accomplish this season. We aren\u2019t sure what the weather will bring, but we\u2019ve had a good record there with our Hyundais and hopefully we can continue that this weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n

The No. 1 Elantra will sport a special addition to the car for\u00a0Project K9 Hero<\/a>, a nonprofit dedicated to improving the health and well-being of retried Military Working Dogs and Police K-9 Heroes. The decal was added at Laguna Seca, and Hagler looks forward to this partnership to support Project K9 Hero\u2019s purpose of ensuring a better life for these dedicated animals while educating the public on the responsibilities of caring for retired K-9 Heroes.<\/p>\n

The compact weekend will begin Friday with two practices and qualifying (5:50pm\u00a0ET) followed by the Mid-Ohio 120 on Saturday (4:00pm ET, Peacock).<\/p>\n
