Kaizen Autosport, a name synonymous with driver development and racing excellence at Virginia International Raceway (VIR), has announced its bold entry into the Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America series. The team’s expansion marks a significant milestone, transitioning from successful programs in Porsche Sprint Challenge, Trans Am, and Ginetta Challenge to the high-profile IMSA-sanctioned single-make championship.
“After six years of building Kaizen into a world-class racing school and training program, we are thrilled to take this next step into Pro racing with our entry into the Lamborghini Super Trofeo Series,” declares team owner Peter Heffring. This move underscores Kaizen’s commitment to nurturing talent and competing at the highest levels of motorsports.
The team’s No. 44 Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2, adorned with a striking livery, will be piloted by the duo of Seth Henry and Wyatt Foster. This venture is made possible through the support of Magellan Financial and Alloy Wealth Management, with the car owned by Mark Henry, Alloy’s founder and CEO.
Seth Henry, a remarkable talent transitioning from oval tracks to road racing, brings a compelling story to the team. As the inaugural Ginetta Challenge North America champion, his rapid ascent is a testament to Kaizen’s training prowess. “I began my racing career with Kaizen Autosport without road racing experience,” Seth explains. “In my first year, I became the 2024 North American Ginetta Challenge champion, winning seven out of ten races, and now I’m competing in IMSA. It’s a dream come true.”
Wyatt Foster, Kaizen’s director of driver development and a seasoned professional coach, completes the driver lineup. “I’ve been part of the Kaizen family for six years,” Foster shares. “I’m honored to use my coaching and driving skills to help launch this new team.” His experience and expertise will be invaluable as Kaizen aims to make an immediate impact in the fiercely competitive Super Trofeo series.
Kaizen Autosport’s move into Lamborghini Super Trofeo signifies a pivotal moment in the team’s evolution. With a blend of emerging talent and seasoned experience, they are poised to make their mark on the championship, bringing their unique blend of driver development and racing passion to the forefront of the series.

American hotshoe Colin Queen, 20, is trading open-wheelers for a roof and a raging bull, signing with ANSA Motorsports for the 2024 Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America season. Queen, fresh from a European single-seater stint, will share an ANSA-prepped Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO2 with fellow young gun Enzo Geraci in the Pro class. Think of it as a racing mullet: business in the front (single-seaters), party in the back (GT racing).
“Transitioning to GT is a whole new ballgame,” Queen told us. “It’s about teamwork, strategy, and getting your head around a 600-plus horsepower beast. Plus, these American tracks are nothing like the Euro circuits I’m used to.”
Queen’s been hitting the books, or rather, the track, with a recent two-day test at Sebring. “The ANSA crew is top-notch. I gelled with the car quick, which is crucial,” he said. “Now, it’s about nailing the details and hitting Sebring running.” And nail it he better. Queen’s got big ambitions. “Endurance racing is the ultimate goal,” he said. “Super Trofeo is the perfect proving ground for team dynamics and race craft.”
Forget the lone wolf stuff. This is a team effort. “It’s about pushing each other with Enzo, maximizing every session, and executing a flawless strategy,” Queen emphasized. The Sebring test proved Queen’s adaptability, but the real test comes next weekend. The Super Trofeo season kicks off at Sebring, supporting the legendary Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring. Expect Queen to be thrown into the deep end, battling seasoned GT veterans and learning the ropes of multi-class racing. “Driving a Lamborghini is an honor,” Queen said. “It’s a legendary brand, and I’m ready to push this machine to its limits.”

A formidable driver lineup has been unveiled for the upcoming Lamborghini Super Trofeo season, with IMSA race-winning talent Scott Huffaker spearheading the Graham Prewett Incorporated/World Speed Motorsports #22 Lamborghini Huracán. Joining him is Lamborghini factory driver Jaden Conwright, creating a potent combination focused on championship contention.
Scott Huffaker, who impressed with his pace and consistency during a limited 2024 Super Trofeo campaign in the #22 GPI Lamborghini, brings a wealth of experience to the team. His impressive resume includes Formula Ford 1600 and F4 championships, a Team USA Scholarship Award, and a prestigious 12 Hours of Sebring victory. Huffaker’s success extends beyond North America, with podium finishes in Europe and Asia across various racing disciplines, including multiple IMSA LMP2 race wins at Sebring.
Jaden Conwright, a Lamborghini factory driver, returns to World Speed, a team where his racing journey began. In 2014, he received the VMB Driver Development Scholarship, quickly proving his talent by winning the Formula Car Challenge FS championship in his rookie season. He continued his success with World Speed, securing the vice-champion title in the Pro Formula Mazda class in 2015.
Conwright’s career then took him to the international stage, achieving a third-place finish in the 2017 Asian FIA F3 series and nine podiums in the 2019 Porsche GT3 Carrera Cup Italia. Back in the United States, Conwright was awarded the 2022 IMSA Diverse Driver Development Scholarship.
“Stepping into Super Trofeo with World Speed support and Scott and Jaden behind the wheel is a perfect combination. I can’t wait to see them behind the wheel, pushing the limits and bringing home podium finishes for Graham Prewett Incorporated” stated car owner Sean Prewett.
World Speed Team Principal Telo Stewart expressed his enthusiasm for the driver pairing, stating, “Scott proved to be very fast in the races he drove in 2024, and we are thrilled to have him leading the charge.
