Holiday Racing Team, alternatively Holiday or HRT, is an American racing team. They are active in the GTC World Cup and AutoReject World Series.

GTC World Cup (2022-??)

Holiday first emerged as an American-licensed, Japanese-based competitor in the 2022 GTC World Cup. George Kurtz and Manuel Maldonado shared the team's sole Acura NSX.

AutoReject World Series (2023-)

The reestablishment of the ARWS in 2023 created openings for new teams. Holiday Racing Team was one of the many teams completely new to the ARWS joining for the first time.

2023

Holiday equipped their first ARWS challenger, the H-2K23, with the slow but extremely reliable Mugen-Honda engines. The team appointed race-winning veteran Phillippe Nicolas as lead driver. Bizarrely, Holiday signed the banned-from-AutoReject Humbert Moyenmoutier to accompany him. Moyenmoutier's ban was disregarded in what AR officials claimed was a "lapse of judgement".
