Pastoris Joins GTO Points-Leading Ligier Entry with Kunzle, Madsen

European Ligier JS2R driver Strengthens Championship Push for the Texas-based team currently leading the competitive WRL GTO championship.

Rapscallion Motorsports, in partnership with STAK Racing, is pleased to announce that Silvain Pastoris will join its GTO points-leading Ligier JS2R program alongside teammates Kunzle and Madsen as the team continues its pursuit of the 2026 National Championship in the World Racing League.

Pastoris brings valuable experience with the Ligier JS2R from European competition, adding depth and technical insight to an already strong driver lineup. His familiarity with the platform is expected to contribute to the team’s ongoing development and on-track performance.

“I’m really excited to be joining Rapscallion Motorsports & STAK Racing for this season,” said Pastoris. “Having already raced the Ligier JS2R in Europe, I’ve built a strong connection with the car, and I really like how the US version brings more aerodynamic development and a more aggressive look.”

“It’s a great opportunity to join such a strong racing team, and I’m eager to contribute to winning races while discovering some of the legendary American tracks along the way,” he added.

Rapscallion Motorsports team manager Kris Wilcox welcomed the addition: “Rapscallion Motorsports is pleased to welcome Silvain Pastoris to our team with STAK Racing as we battle for the 2026 National Championship in the World Racing League. His experience in the JS2R will be a great addition to our development. We can’t wait to see what Silvain as a driver brings to the team.”

Pastoris is scheduled to compete in the upcoming rounds at Road Atlanta and Circuit of the Americas. While he has prior experience in the JS2R platform overseas, this will mark his first appearance in the Rapscallion-prepared car, which features enhanced aerodynamic and performance developments.

With momentum on their side and a strengthened lineup, Rapscallion Motorsports and STAK Racing remain focused on extending their lead in the GTO championship standings.
