The 2025 iRacing Team Endurance Series kicked things off in Wisconsin at Road America on Sunday Nov. 3rd. Known as 'America's Nation Park of Speed', the 4.048-mile, 14-turn, Grand Prix layout was an excellent venue for the 60 race teams to get to know one another. With ample overtaking opportunities it allowed the multi-class grid to showcase what endurance racing is all about—traffic management. Qualifying got underway with an overcast sky and a cool 64 degrees. Getting the tires up to operating temperature and avoiding the easy 1x off track penalty would prove to be difficult. Quite a few teams would see their best laps erased due to these critical errors. With the checkered flag waving, the field was set, and the nerves began to build as the opening round was ready to start the clock on the 4hrs at Road America.

November 4th, 2024 - Congratulations to Jesse Lyon for winning the first race of the 2025 Porsche Cup iRTES Support series at Road America.  The series kicked off it's first race of a six race season for the 5th consecutive season with a chilly fall day at the Iconic Road America circuit in Elkhart Lake, WI. A twenty four car field would grid up for the race, with Afonso Souto taking pole position.  Souto, after winning a race last season looked to build upon success in prior races and would look strong throughout the race.  He would lead 12 of the 14 laps before having a DQ for exceeding incident limits late in the race while battling with hard pressure from Jesse Lyon for the win.  The two cars separated by less than a second for most of the race. Michael Parker, 2023 series Champion would finish in P2 > more

Story by Afonso Souto Images by David Anderson January 30th, 2024 - The first round of the 2024 CMS iRTES Cup Series is done and we had a fun and fiesty one at Spa-Francorchamps. This year's championship brought a new format with a random grid order for the first race of the day. This contributed to an action packed first race. With a car missing the start, we had chaos down into the first corner. Paul Darling took advantage of the confusion and rocketed into the lead, where he stayed the rest of the race. That meant the the 56 Porsche got pole position for the longer 45 minute race. This time around, the grid got through La Source cleanly but that doesn't mean that there was no action. The fight for the lead was on, Paul Darling, Chad Henson and Afonso Souto, all battling. A mistake from the > more

Story by Afonso Souto Images by David Anderson January 18th, 2024 - And just like that another round of the iRTES is done and dusted. It was a crazy one, a lot of overtaking, lapping, incidents, crashes, all of that producing a great spectacle for everyone watching. In the LMDh Pro once again it's the #65 Satellite Racing Teal car who took honors in this class after a dominant performance once again winning by almost 42s over their sister car. After the second dominant performance of the season they come closer to the overall title at the end of the season.

Story by Alonso Souto and David Anderson Image by Michael Huper January 4th, 2024 iRTES Jerez Preview For the second round of the iRTES the grid heads to the south of Spain. Near Cádiz, Jerez de la Frontera is a 4.4km (2.75 miles) long FIA grade 1 track with 15 corners and two straights, which constitute the best overtaking chances on this layout. Founded in 1985 the spanish track has a great history, hosting F1 racing from 1986 to 1990 and two extra races in 1994 and 1997 with the fastest circuit lap being set in this last year by Heinz-Harald Fretzen (Williams-Renault) a 1:23.135.

Story and Images by David Anderson June 11th, 2023 The iRacing Team Endurance Series Porsche Cup Series brought to you by Champion Motorsports and Penguin r/c Simulation took to the Twin Ring Motegi today for a great race for round 5 of the 8 race championship. A field of 15 drivers came into the race, with an exciting points battle up top with Michael Parker narrowly leading Tristan Martz and Brian Szabelski through 4 rounds. Parker would benefit from Miguel Colon having trouble early in the race to take the lead away from Miguel and polesitter Shane Hunter and he would never look back leading all the laps. However it was not without serious stress towards the end of the race as for the 2nd race this season he had big pressure from behind from a charging Blake Reynolds. It looked as if Blake would chase down Parker as > more
