June 23, 2025 – Nitro Motorsports continued its impressive 2025 campaign in the CUBE 3 Architecture TA2 Trans Am Series Presented by Pirelli, placing five drivers inside the top-ten during the Round 6 event at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. With strong qualifying efforts and consistent pace across the weekend, the team showed depth, determination, and execution at one of the most technical tracks on the calendar.
Leading the Nitro charge was Thomas Annunziata, who started fourth and battled within the lead pack throughout the 42-lap race to finish fourth overall. Right behind him, Sam Corry started fifth and finished fifth, showcasing a composed drive in the hot and slick conditions. Ben Maier, in the #80 Ford Mustang, gained four spots from his qualifying position to bring home a sixth-place result, continuing his strong season.
Laguna Seca race winner Gian Buffomante added another top-ten finish for Nitro Motorsports in eighth, while Cale Phillips placed 11th, but that result netted him a third-place finish in the Pro / Am class, adding another podium result for Nitro Motorsports. Also flying the Nitro banner were Mia Lovell (17th), Julian DaCosta (18th), and Boris Said Jr.(21st).
“This was a tough but ok weekend for the team,” explained Nick Tucker, Team Owner of Nitro Motorsports. “We had drivers throughout the top-ten and showed strong pace and while we did not come home with a win, we did add another podium result to our resume at the hands of Cale Phillips. We tried some things this weekend, and it didn’t work like we thought. Next week, we will get back on track at Road America. Our entire operation continues to grow, and I’m proud of the effort everyone put in at Mid-Ohio. We’re building great momentum heading into the second half of the season.”
Tucker added, “We have little time to regroup as we are back on track next weekend for another chance to stand atop the podium.”
The team will now shift focus to the upcoming round of the championship this weekend at Road America. Traveling to Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, Road America provides a fast and flowing 4.014-mile layout, and the longest track on the calendar for the 2025 season, as the season continues.
