The 2012 Round of Michigan was the tenth round of the 2012 TM Master Cup season. It was held at the West Midland Bullring in West Midland, Michigan.

Pre-race storylines[edit | edit source]

Only 22 cars took the green flag in this race. Of the 7 MCMA teams that did not participate in the weekend, Team Saar USA, FLASH Racing, Mitchell & Sons, DeGarmo Enterprises, BlackDiamond Racing, Majestic Motorsports and Xenos Racing had been warned before the weekend began from the TM Master Cup officials, stating: "Race the Round of Michigan, or have your guaranteed spots for the 2013 season revoked." Star Team Nemoto is technically an MCMA team, however since they agree to not boycott the Round of Michigan, the MCMA wanted no more to do with the team.

Scott Steudler is in the No. 50 car for Scuderia Tutino, which was surprising to the Mitchell & Sons Racing team. Mélanie Clévenot, who has been impressive in her two starts at Russia and Wales, is likely to have a chance driving the No. 74 Tremwell for the rest of the season, but it depends on how her TM Europe schedule and her GT schedule collide.

Tom Delgado is missing this race and the 2012 Round of Quebec to have surgery on his back. He is projected to return for the 2012 Round of Ohio, but Star Team Nemoto may sit him out for that race as well so he may have more time to recover and be at 100% for the remaining races.
