PCA Sim Racing
PCA Sim Racing returns to the PCA Porsche Parade in 2024!
Welcome to Barber Motorsports Park – 2024 Porsche Parade’s home track!
PCA Sim Racing will offer multiple ways to virtually drive the track. All our systems will have the full course Barber layout as our designated course.
Going out to the track for the Porsche Parade on Saturday? Attending a PTX session during the week? Or just interested in experiencing the local racetrack while at Parade? You can practice on our iRacing laser-scanned Barber Motorsports Park Full Course. We’ll adjust the time and weather, so it matches the actual track conditions. Yes, that can be done!
We have multiple PCA Sim Racing driving options this year!
Updated racing systems for new drivers to do free half-hour try out. Don’t be shy! We will step you through getting started and getting you up-to-speed. If you’re new to sim racing, please reserve a time by completing this sign-up.
Drive Vintage Porsches!
New this year will be the opportunity to virtually drive classic Porsches such as the 356, the 912, the 930, and the 917 on historic racing tracks (and Barber Motorsports Park). Please reserve a time by completing this sign-up.
How Inexpensive is PCA Sim Racing?
It’s a question everyone asks. Hint: it’s less than you probably think. We’ll answer that question at this year’s Porsche Parade with a laptop setup. Please reserve a time by completing this sign-up.
Virtual Reality Headsets or Monitors?
Both will be available for you to try at this year's Porsche Parade. Please reserve a time by completing this sign-up.
Fast Lap Competition
New this year is a Fast Lap Competition where sim racers can post their fastest time at the virtual Barber Motorsports Park!
You will get a chance to set a faster time than a representative from each of the five PCA Sim Racing classes: PCA Entry, PCA Challenge, PCA Sport, PCA Club, and PCA Pro. You do not need to be a sim racer to compete.
Our class representatives are:
- Jim Hemig – Entry Class
- Lisa Eskridge – PCA Challenge Class
- Ken Eskridge – PCA Sport Class
- Aaron Ambrisino – PCA Club Class
- Stephen Kemp – PCA Pro Class
In your Registration II sign-up, you will find the option to run the Fast Lap Competition for a half-hour with a $20 fee. Sign-up and give it a go! You may win a trophy, a commemorative award, or a major prize!
Schedule
We’re open every day of the 2024 Porsche Parade! Sign-up for multiple half-hour sessions now or stop by to check what is open in the schedule. We’ll get you in and running!
