About 13 Autosport
13 Autosport is a Canadian-American team that campaigns the Corvette Z06 GT3.R in IMSA's GTD class. The team has built its identity around a combination of Canadian business backing and professional American GT racing expertise, creating a program with strong chemistry among its drivers and a clear goal: GTD class victories at IMSA's premier events.
The team's name — 13 Autosport — carries its own message: 13 is traditionally an unlucky number, but the team embraces it as a statement of confidence, racing the "unlucky" number against conventional wisdom. In endurance racing, confidence and preparation matter far more than superstition.
The Car: Corvette Z06 GT3.R
The Corvette Z06 GT3.R brings American muscle car engineering to the GTD class. Based on the mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the GT3.R uses a flat-plane crankshaft V8 engine that produces a distinctive, high-revving character unlike traditional American V8s. In the GTD class, the Corvette competes against Ferrari, Porsche, Aston Martin, and Mercedes under the Balance of Performance system that equalizes performance.
Having the Corvette represented in both GTD Pro (factory Corvette Racing #3 and #4) and GTD (13 Autosport #13, DXDT Racing #36, DragonSpeed #81) creates a fascinating tiered comparison of the same American platform across different levels of competition and professionalism.
Cooper MacNeil — American GT Royalty
Cooper MacNeil is one of the most prominent American gentleman drivers in professional GT racing. His family background — the MacNeil family are associated with WD-40, the iconic American lubricant company — provides the financial foundation for a serious racing program, but Cooper has done the work to become a genuinely competitive driver in his own right. His Le Mans appearances mark him as a committed international racer.
Marco Fidani (Canada) is a Canadian businessman and gentleman driver who brings both funding and passion to 13 Autosport. His involvement reflects the team's Canadian-American character and the cross-border motorsport community that spans the two North American countries. GT racing is one of the sports where Canadian and American racers regularly compete alongside one another at the same professional level.
Cooper MacNeil (USA) is a prominent American gentleman driver from a racing family with deep ties to the sport. His multiple appearances at the 24 Hours of Le Mans — motorsport's most demanding and prestigious endurance race — establish him as a serious competitor at the international level. At Sebring, MacNeil's Le Mans experience translates directly: managing a car over very long distances, pacing strategy over extended stints, and the mental stamina required for grueling endurance competition.
Madison Snow (USA) is an American professional GT driver with multiple IMSA class victories across different car classes. Her professional credentials are strong — having won in GT classes requires genuine speed and strategic intelligence — and she serves as the team's primary professional driver, ensuring the #13 is always in contention for GTD class honors.
