The Porsche Open Series features a great and varied mix of racing Porsches producing exciting and dramatic racing. Providing a home for Porsches of all specifications, ages and levels of modification, the series always produces good racing, the 996 GT3s from Class Two often in among the Class One cars, while the more standard ‘road-based’ in Class 3 ensure action all down the field.
The series visits leading UK circuits, including the Silverstone Grand Prix layout (both Historic and Full variants), Brands GP and Oulton Park in addition to a final round ‘away-day’ to the famous Spa-Francorchamps circuit in Belgium. A mix of sprint and one-hour races (with the option of a mid-race driver change) keeps the racers on their toes, while four rounds with races sharing the track with the Porsche Club Championship mean huge grids and all-action racing.
From the mighty and hugely powerful 993 GT2’s and 997 GT3 Cup cars in Class One, to the less exotic 993s and 944s, the Open has a class for just about any racing Porsche - and for 2008 there is again the added lure of a one-off drive in the Porsche Carrera Cup GB for the Porsche Open ‘Driver of the Year’.
