Pegasus Racing and TEAM LOTUS join hands to prepare for the SRO GT Cup Shanghai Station

Pegasus Racing will appear on the track of the 2025 GT Series. This will be the first time that Pegasus Racing officially participates in the GT event. The powerful drivers and professional team lineup will start from the SRO GT Cup Shanghai Station and join forces to leave a story belonging to Pegasus Racing in the GT event.

The Pegasus Racing team was established in March 2024 and is based in Songjiang District, Shanghai. The team consists of several members who have been active in the automotive sports industry for many years. The team members have an average of more than 10 years of professional qualifications in the racing industry, and have experience in track, rally and other competitions. They have won many championships in CTCC, CRC, TCR and other events. The team members are united to realize the common racing ideal and build a new team.

Starting from 2024, Pegasus Racing and TEAM LOTUS have reached a new partnership and will send three EMIRA GT4 racing cars to participate in the competition. From touring cars, rally to GT events, the high standards and high requirements of the event span have brought new challenges to the team.

The SRO GT Cup Shanghai Station will kick off at the Shanghai International Circuit from March 21st to 23rd. In order to meet this challenge in the best condition, the team has been making intensive preparations for this year's SRO GT series since the second half of 2024. In February 2025, LOTUS UK headquarters sent James Young, a senior engineer with decades of racing experience, to the base of Pegasus Racing to participate in the testing and tuning of the car.

On the 10th and 11th of this month, the Pegasus Racing crew and drivers successfully completed the pre-race test drive at the Ningbo International Circuit in Zhejiang.

The Ningbo International Circuit is located in the Chunxiao Mountain Climbing Area in Beilun District, Ningbo. The total length of the track is 4.01 kilometers, with 22 corners with different speeds and radii (including 13 left turns and 9 right turns). The track rises and falls with the mountain, and the height difference between the lowest point and the highest point is 24 meters. The track has long straights and many combined corners. The track presents the popular Stop & Go characteristics, so it places high demands on the power output and braking performance of the car.

Pegasus Racing has assigned three teams to perform performance tests on three EMIRA GT4 cars, collect data based on feedback on the track and further optimize the tuning.

In two days, the team completed a lot of testing work and achieved ideal results. The team also gained valuable experience through continuous attempts and running-in. Through the review and analysis after the test drive, the necessary data on the performance of the vehicle and the window of the new formula tire have been obtained, helping the team to meet the SRO GT Cup next week with sufficient confidence.

The SRO GT Cup Shanghai Station is about to kick off. All members of the Pegasus Racing team are ready and actively preparing for the podium. We hope that Pegasus Racing will have a successful GT debut!
