With the karting season coming to a close, ProCup’s TJ Halsema decided to put into action a plan that has long been in the books. While the karting season was underway, TJ was already wondering what the league could do between the break of the summer and winter seasons. Knowing that sim-racing provided an inexpensive alternative to driving to the track each weekend, TJ motioned that ProCup should try their hands at hosting their first iRacing season. After weeks of work, we are proud to announce the ProCup Karting iRacing League.

      We race because the fun, speed, and camaraderie with your fellow competitors. These same aspects will be present during our season here on iRacing. We are all here to race, and most importantly have fun. With drivers of all skill ranges and with some drivers as young as 13, it’ll be important to work together and help each other out when a fellow driver is in need of assistance. The friendships gained here will transfer to the track and the world outside of the sim. Many of the drivers here may already know each other, while others will be new to the whole experience, making sure everyone is welcome is the goal of the ProCup Karting iRacing League.

      So, what will we be racing? As a this is the first season of iRacing for ProCup, we decided on a car that would be welcoming to all drivers that choose to drive it. The venerable Mazda MX-5 Cup car, is a car that is easy to be comfortable in, and takes just a bit more to be fast in. With the spec series, drivers will have a chance to show what they can do, and not how much they can tune their car in the shop. Couple this with the our race formats, of 3 short sprint races on a given race night. The season will be guaranteed to have plenty of highs and lows all while providing close, fast, and fun racing with friends.
Welcome to the ProCup Karting iRacing League!
