Racing With Lamborghini Squadra Corse

Starting in 2026, Chicago Performance and Automobili Lamborghini America have joined forces to bring the bulls from Sant’Agata Bolognese back into SRO America competition.

Chicago Performance Supported By Lamborghini Squadra Corse has entered the #64 LIQUI MOLY Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2 into GT World Challenge America Powered By AWS for some of the most prestigious events of the calendar: GT Sonoma, GT Road America, and the venerable IGTC Indianapolis 8-Hour.

Meet The Drivers

Mads SIljehaug - FIA Silver Pro Driver

Mads has been competing in professional motorsports for well over 10 years. Like many drivers, he began in the junior formulas, finding early success before making the move to sportscar racing in 2016.

Shortly after, Mads was picked up by Reiter Engineering and later KTM Sportcar as a factory driver, supporting both their racing programs and development projects before his contract with both ended in 2023.

Now with over 100 professional race starts, Mads has accumulated 25 wins, 46 podiums, 17 fastest laps, and 11 pole positions. His accolades include a championship in the 2019 ADAC GT4 Germany series, as well as finishing runner-up in the 2023 Michelin Le Mans Cup LMP3 class championship.

Since 2018, Mads has competed with Marco Polo Motorsports across their extensive GT4 programs in the KTM X-BOW.

In 2020, Mads joined forces with Chicago Performance, leading our joint program with Marco Polo Motorsports in the Pirelli GT4 America series with the Toyota GR Supra GT4 EVO2. In addition to his driving role, Mads serves as our primary professional racing coach, supporting club customers across one-make, GT4, GTX, GT2, and GT3 platforms.

Nicolai Elghanayan - SRO Bronze

Nicolai’s passion for racing is deeply rooted in his father’s own motorsport career, shaping his path into the sport from an early age. Starting in one-make competition, Nicolai broke onto the scene with an immediate win on debut in the Lotus Cup, quickly establishing himself as a front-runner. That early success carried forward into back-to-back championships in 2016 and 2017 under the one-make banner.

Since 2018, Nicolai has been partnered with Mads, steadily building their program into consistent championship contention within SRO America. Over that time, the pairing has continued to develop both on and off track, refining their approach and strengthening their position within the field.

Now with over 40 race starts, Nicolai has accumulated 5 wins and 16 podiums, continuing to build experience and momentum as a driver. Eager and hungry for his break into GT3 competition, Nicolai has worked hard to ready himself for GT World Challenge America, with his sights firmly set on strong results in 2026 and beyond.

Loris Spinelli - FIA Gold Factory Driver

Loris’ passion for racing began at an early age, knowing from just five years old that his path was set in motorsport. Starting in karting, he quickly found success, going on to win championships across Europe and establish himself as a competitive presence from the outset.

Making the transition to cars in 2015, Loris continued that momentum in one-make competition, achieving significant success in Lamborghini Super Trofeo Europe. His results include Pro Class championships in both 2017 and 2022, further solidifying his reputation within the category.

Alongside his one-make success, Loris now competes in GT3 machinery, racing internationally as part of both Lamborghini and Mercedes programs, gaining experience across a range of platforms and events.

As of 2024, Loris serves as an official Lamborghini Factory Driver within Squadra Corse, supporting programs such as Forte Racing in the IMSA WeatherTech Championship.

Throughout the 2026 season, Loris has served as the driving advisor for Mads and Nicolai as they continue to develop with the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2, and will join Chicago Performance as the third driver for the Indianapolis 8 Hour.
