Having survived a gruelling debut at the Twelve Hours of Sebring in March to take sixth in GT1 class and a tenth place finish, Dalziel then stepped up with a double-driving stint in last month's Road Atlanta event to take the chequered flag fifth in class and ninth overall, the 23-year-old Scot having earlier topped the GT1 practice times ahead of the factory-entered Corvette C6-R's.
With two top ten finishes already for the rookie privateer GT1 team, Dalziel hopes to make it a three in a row at Mid-Ohio come Sunday afternoon.
"I can't wait to get back behind the wheel, five weeks is a long time to go without racing!" he said. "Mid-Ohio's an excellent venue and a challenging driver track. I've raced there before, finishing second in Toyota Atlantic's in 2003. We've been busy since Road Atlanta and I hope the set-up changes we found while testing at Infineon Raceway last week will help bump us up the grid a bit. We're also pretty excited about some big gains made in our tyre programme with Yokohama!"
