ALVIN, Texas – April 3, 2026 – Elevate Motorsports Marketing announced today, on behalf of Hillenburg Motorsports, that Eric Wisniewski of Mason, Michigan, will compete full-season in the 2026 Formula Regional Americas Championship (FR Americas). This marks the second and final driver announcement for the team’s debut professional campaign.
Wisniewski, a rising open-wheel talent, has established himself as a standout in SCCA Formula Enterprise 2 (FE2) competition. In 2025, he earned a silver medal (second place) at the SCCA National Championship Runoffs in the FE2 class—his second consecutive Runoffs podium after finishing second in 2024. He also claimed the 2025 Hoosier SCCA Super Tour Championship in FE2 and the 2025 Mid-States Division Championship, while securing multiple wins and podiums across Hoosier SCCA Super Tour events, including a dominant sweep at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course with pole positions, race victories, and a track record. He has consistently contended at the front of the FE2 field.
Prior to his SCCA FE2 campaigns, Wisniewski competed in the 2023 Formula 4 United States Championship (F4 U.S.). At just 14 years old in 2022, he claimed the inaugural Driver Championship in what is today known as Ligier Junior Formula Championship (Ligier JFC), showcasing his early promise in formula racing.
“Eric represents the next generation of talent we’re excited to develop in FR Americas,” said Roy Hillenburg, co-owner of Hillenburg Motorsports. “His recent success in FE2—including back-to-back Runoffs podiums, the 2025 Hoosier Super Tour Championship, and the Mid-States Division title—combined with his F4 experience and championship pedigree from such a young age, makes him an ideal addition to our program. We have a strong lineup ready to compete at the professional level.”
Wisniewski will pilot the No. 25 Hillenburg Motorsports Ligier JS F3 in FR Americas, backed by primary sponsor RE/MAX Commercial Group. Fans can follow Wisniewski's journey primarily through his active Instagram account (@eric_wisniewski25) and official website (EricWisniewski.com), where he shares racing updates, insights, and highlights.
Hillenburg Motorsports will make its FR Americas debut — with both drivers on track — at the season-opening round at NOLA Motorsports Park in Avondale, La., on April 9-12. The team enters the series with decades of open-wheel expertise from sprint cars, Formula Mazda, Indy Lights, US F4, and its ongoing SCCA Formula Enterprise 2 program.
