Over the weekend Pebble Beach held its grand event, Concours d’Elegance. During Friday at The Quail, Acura pulled the drapping car cover off the latest entry into the Dpi IMSA racing series. The ARX-05 was introduced to the world in California with legendary racing names alongside. Roger Penske was on hand to show the world that Acura and Team Penske have partnered together to bring Acura to the top of the prototype field in 2018 starting at the Rolex 24 Hour Race.

The Acura and Team Penske will field two cars in the 2018 season. The Acura will be powered by a twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 that is based off the J35 Acura street car platform. Dave Marek and his team were in charge of the bodywork design. The chassis is based off of the Oreca 07 and the team has already been on track testing in the last few weeks.
