Spy shots show what appears to be HWA's next competition build circulating the Ring, likely in preparation for a full assault on the grueling 24-hour circuit. The Lexus IS platform swap suggests a calculated gamble on balance and reliability over raw horsepower. If this runs, it's worth watching—customer racing budgets are finally getting smart about chassis selection.
