Mates vs. States iRacing League

Australians vs Americans Multiclass Racing: GTP and GT3

$5.00

With national pride brewing among Skid Mark Sim Racing, we’ve decided to put it on the line and create a multi-class race series spanning the best circuits between the US and Australia.

Featuring 10 rounds hosting the GT3 and GTP classes, our aim is to not only get the ball rolling on our first multiclass season but to also expand our community down under.  Not only will there be a drivers championship but also a US vs AU homeland championship...Patriotic liveries encouraged.
