The pair will be behind the wheel of the Wallis Motorsport Ford Mustang GT4 entered in the Silver Cup.
Paley becomes Wallis’ fourth teammate since joining the series, having previously raced alongside uncle Jed, father Adam, and another American Ford Racing driver, Jenson Altzman.
Despite a challenging first season with no shortage of misfortune, including Altzman being collected in a first lap incident at The Bend, Wallis was able to take a best finish of eighth on two occasions.
“This is a really exciting step forward for my career. I’m proud to be teaming up with Sam Paley and continuing to race with our family team, Wallis Motorsport, for the 2026 Monochrome GT4 Series,” Wallis said.
“Having a driver of Sam’s calibre and international experience join the program is a huge opportunity, and I believe we can achieve some strong results together.”
At 23 years of age, Paley brings valuable experience to the Wallis outfit despite his youth.
