2024 TC America Series

The 2024 TC America Series Powered by Skip Barber Racing School was the sixth season of the TC America Series. The season began at Sonoma on April 5, 2024, and ended at Indianapolis on October 6.

Calendar

The preliminary calendar was released on July 1, 2023, featuring 14 races across seven rounds.[1] On July 17, the VIR round was moved from June 15–16 to July 19–21, to avoid a clash with the 24 Hours of Le Mans.[2] An additional change was announced on September 7, with Barber Motorsports Park returning to the schedule for the first time since 2016 and Sebring replaced NOLA Motorsports Park.[3]
