The GPVWC Administration have the pleasure to announce one of the most eagerly-awaited Championships to join our offering in 2012 - the inaugural GPVWC Endurance Championship. The new series, which will feature six uniquely crafted events and culminate in a thrilling 12-hour race finale, will test teams and drivers with different race lengths and allow teams to also enter individual events.


The Endurance Championship, which builds on the success of last year's one-off events ran by Ryan Walker, has been developed by the expert hand of Ryan McConkey. Teams can register via the login menu system (Register Team Interest).


The Series will visit the Endurance shrines of Sebring and Road America for a 6-hour season opener and a testing 4-hour race, visit Europe's Algarve and Japan's Suzuka for two 3-hour dashes before it's back to the US for the 5-hour event at Road Atlanta. The season finale, and an event that is expected to be over-subscribed, is the gruelling 12 Hour of Spa-Francorchamps where the best GPVWC Endurance team will be crowned.
