MOORESVILLE, N.C. – Acura Team Penske’s liveries for the upcoming IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season were unveiled on Thursday, and longtime fans of sports-car racing likely recognized them straightaway.

The Roger Penske-owned organization will hearken back to the early 1990s, when the California-based Comptech team dominated the IMSA GTP-Light class by winning three straight championships from 1991-1993.

Comptech’s Spice-built, Acura NSX-powered entries were impossible to miss thanks to their dayglo-orange paint schemes, and the two Penske ARX-05 DPi cars will attempt to replicate the success of their predecessors with a similar white-and-orange look.

The familiar colors also appeared as part of Comptech’s CART program in the mid-1990s.

“This is a natural look for Acura prototypes, and a salute to our heritage as a performance brand,” said Acura executive creative director Dave Marek. “The Acura brand was founded in 1986, and its debut in motorsports soon followed.

“Today, we’re proud to unveil a livery that accurately reflects our long, successful history in North American racing – and look forward to adding new chapters to the story of Acura Precision Crafted Performance.”

Acura Team Penske scored its first victory last season at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course with drivers Ricky Taylor and Helio Castroneves.

Dane Cameron and Juan Pablo Montoya, in a second Penske Acura, finished fifth in the Prototype point standings, while Taylor and Castroneves ended up seventh in the rundown.
