The Prehistoric Pink Porsche 911 GT3 Rawr Steps Into the Spotlight at Twelve Hours of Sebring
At Champion Porsche, we believe racing heritage isn’t just something we sell—it’s something we live. As America’s #1 Porsche dealership and a proud sponsor of AO Racing, we’re thrilled to announce that Roxy, the prehistoric pink Porsche 911 GT3 Rawr, will make her endurance racing debut at the legendary Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring on March 21, 2026.
Stepping Up for Sebring
Roxy isn’t just filling a seat—she’s carrying a legacy. After her big brother Rexy suffered damage at January’s Rolex 24 At Daytona (losing that iconic diamond-studded smile for the second consecutive year), the AO Racing team needed a driver with championship DNA and unmistakable presence. Enter Roxy: same GT3 Rawr platform, same prehistoric attitude, now in striking pink livery and ready for 12 hours of Florida intensity.
“All of us at AO are excited for Roxy to make her endurance racing debut at the Mobil 1 12 Hours of Sebring,” said Team Principal Gunnar Jeannette. “She’s got big shoes to fill after Rexy’s win last year, but we feel she’s ready for the challenge! We are looking forward to seeing all the fans come out to give her support at our Autograph Extravaganza!”
A Family Affair: Spike Returns with Championship Hardware
Roxy won’t face Sebring alone. She’ll share the AO Racing stable with Spike the Dragon, the defending LMP2 class champion who has evolved back to his signature purple livery—with a permanent upgrade. The tip of Spike’s tail now shines in illustrious gold, sporting a diamond “25” that commemorates his 2025 championship titles in both the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and European Le Mans Series.
This new “bling” parallels Rexy’s own gold and diamond “24” tooth, celebrating the Porsche’s 2024 GTD PRO championship. At Champion Porsche, we recognize that attention to detail—whether in championship jewelry or customer service—is what separates contenders from champions.
Why Champion Porsche Supports AO Racing
Our sponsorship of AO Racing reflects core values we apply daily at our Pompano Beach dealership:
Performance Under Pressure
Just as Roxy will endure 12 hours of Sebring’s brutal concrete corners and Florida heat, Champion Porsche delivers consistent excellence whether selling a new 911 GT3 or servicing a classic Carrera.
Distinctive Character
A pink dinosaur racing a Porsche 911 GT3 shouldn’t work—but it absolutely does. That same confidence to stand out drives our approach to customer experience at 500 West Copans Road.
Family Resilience
When Rexy went down, the AO Racing family rallied. Roxy stepped up. Spike returned stronger. At Champion Porsche, our team culture mirrors that commitment: when challenges arise, we support each other and deliver for our customers.
Championship Pedigree
AO Racing doesn’t participate—they win. As America’s #1 volume Porsche dealer, we understand that sustained excellence requires more than occasional success. It demands systems, people, and passion working in concert.
Watch Roxy’s Debut Live
The Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring represents IMSA’s second crown jewel event of 2026, following the Rolex 24. For Roxy, it’s baptism by fire. For Champion Porsche, it’s affirmation that our sponsorship investments support teams and drivers who embody the Porsche spirit.
