Dome Motorsport today announced that Laura Hayes will join the team’s 2026 SRO GT4 America driver lineup, completing its four-driver roster as the team returns for its second season of competition in the championship alongside partner organization Junaid Family Foundation.
Hayes will partner with team owner Eddie Killeen in Dome Motorsport’s second Mercedes-AMG GT4 entry in the AM class. The pairing combines Killeen’s growing GT4 experience with Hayes’ accomplished and versatile racing résumé, forming a strong lineup as the team expands its presence in the series.
“I am very excited to be paired with an experienced driver in Laura,” said team owner Eddie Killeen. “She brings strong racecraft and proven results, and I believe we’ll be a very competitive pairing in the AM class. I am thrilled for Laura that Dome Motorsport can play a small part in what is sure to be an accomplished racing career. With Marc and Allen leading our Pro/Am effort and Laura joining me in the AM entry, we have a very balanced program for 2026 that gives Dome Motorsport the opportunity to fight for results across both classes.”
Hayes has competed in endurance racing since 2015 in series including American Endurance Racing and the World Racing League. In 2021, she earned the Mazda Motorsport Women in Motorsport Scholarship and made her rookie start at the iconic Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. She expanded her résumé in 2022 with competition in Mazda MX-5 Cup before capturing the 2023 WRL Eastern and National GTO Championships. In 2024, Hayes won the inaugural Pikes Peak GT4 Trophy by Yokohama while setting the record as the fastest woman ever up the mountain. She continued her rise in professional sports car racing in 2025 in SRO GT4 America, earning multiple podium finishes and a class victory.
“Over my birthday weekend, I received a surprise call from Eddie offering me the opportunity to race with him and Dome Motorsport,” said Hayes. “Thanks to the incredible support from Dome Motorsport and from Uma and Allen at Oore Jewelry, we’ll be heading to Sonoma Raceway. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to build on what I learned last season and chase some trophies with Dome.”
With Hayes now confirmed, Dome Motorsport’s four-driver lineup for the 2026 season is complete. The team will field a two-car effort in the highly competitive SRO GT4 America championship, campaigning a pair of Mercedes-AMG GT4 machines as it builds on the experience gained during its debut season.
In the Pro/Am class, Dome Motorsport will field sports car champion and race winner Marc Miller alongside rising GT talent Allen Patten. Together, the pairing brings proven experience and emerging speed, positioning the team to challenge for wins throughout the season.
Now entering its sophomore campaign, Dome Motorsport, along with partner organization Junaid Family Foundation, continues to strengthen its presence in the SRO paddock with a focus on professionalism, performance engineering, and championship ambition. With two competitive entries and a refined operational structure, the team is poised to make a significant impact in its second season. The 2026 SRO GT4 America season kicks off this spring, with Dome Motorsport targeting podium finishes from the opening round.
