All 5 TRS events will have a common schedule:

35-minute open practice
10-minute lone qualifying
5-minute drivers meeting
4-hour race
10-minute post-race interviews (all 5 races will be broadcast)

The cars will be the Porsche 963 and Porsche 911 GT3R.

There will be 4 classes:

Pro – Porsche 963
Am – Porsche 963
Pro – Porsche 911 GT3R
Am – Porsche 911 GT3R

The only difference in classes is that Pro has at least one PCA Sim Racing Pro classified driver and Am has no Pro classified drivers.

Teams are based on the car selected, the class, and the Team Manager. If any of these 3 criteria change during the 2025 TRS season, the team will be considered a new team.

Team drivers – except the Team Manager – can change teams and classes throughout the series as much as they want. This is an effort to add maximum flexibility to the schedule.

A minimum of 2 drivers and an unlimited maximum of drivers.

Live Race Control.

The schedule is final unless it conflicts with an iRacing Special Event or CMS’s iRTES series needs to change its current schedule. If either occurs, our TRS date will be changed to an earlier or later date.

Series 14

Series 14 car will be the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (992).
