Dempsey Racing will make its American Le Mans Series debut this weekend with Patrick Dempsey and regular co-driver Joe Foster joined by former ALMS winner, Jonny Cocker.

Cocker pulled out a spectacular last lap victory two seasons ago at Road America for Drayson Racing aboard a similar Lola Judd combination.

The three drivers greeted the media at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca today and Michelin Alley was on end to capture the entire media conference.

While Joe Foster has raced extensively in the American Le Mans Series previously, neither he nor ALMS debutant Dempsey have had the opportunity to compete in a prototype class.

The team has faced a huge battle to make it onto the grid. A shortage of parts meant the team has had to borrow components from Dyson Racing, Level 5 Motorsports and Black Swan Racing.
