PCA Sim Racing had not previously held a 24-hour endurance race event. That was remedied on June 29-30, 2024 with the PCA24 endurance racing event at the iRacing legendary Circuit des 24 Heures du Mans. Porsche sim racing enthusiasts from PCA Sim Racing and other recognized sim racing groups competed in the live broadcast event. Six teams had the opportunity to highlight and raise money for their favorite non-profit charity.

There are many people to thank for the event. Among them is famed Voice of Le Mans broadcaster John Hindhaugh who called the start of the race. Thanks to the terrific broadcast provided by RaceSpot (RaceSpotTV). Thanks to event coordinators and PCA Sim Racers Bob Rose, Stephen Kemp, and Jochem Bakker. Thanks to the teams who selected and sponsored 6 non-profit groups.

PCA24 event results available here.
