WELCOME
Welcome to Season 2 of the Motorsport UK Esports - GT Challenge, this time partnered with Asetek SimSports!
This iRacing championship is a multiclass GT3 & GT4 season, consisting of four rounds at UK circuits with a 90 minute race at each Round.
In Season 1 this was a 2-driver team format, however after taking on feedback this is now an individuals championship with fixed setups for all cars.
