Porsche Motorsport North America (PMNA), the exclusive distributor of Porsche race cars and parts in the United States and Canada, has announced the prize package for champions in its premier one-make race series, the Porsche Carrera Cup North America Presented by the Cayman Islands. The drivers in the three class championship – all of which use the most current Porsche 911 GT3 Cup race car – will have even more to fight for in the second season as Porsche adds awards, opportunities and career-strengthening prizes. The champions will be crowned the evening of September 30 at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta following the 16 round season.

For the second year, the top award for the champions in each of the series’ three class (Pro, Pro-Am and Am) remains a trip for two to the five-star Kimpton Seafire Resort + Spa in the Cayman Islands. The four-night stay in the five-star resort includes airfare, and transportation, a visit to the iconic Stingray City and a culinary experience in one of the esteemed restaurants in the Grand Cayman.

Porsche Motorsport North America will provide a full-season entry fee for the champion of each class to use for the 2023 Carrera Cup season. TAG Heuer, who joined as a full-season partner in the championship’s inaugural season in 2021, increases its support of the Porsche Motorsport Pyramid race series by celebrating the top-three in each class with a timepiece recognizing the achievement as well as the top pole winner in each class. In addition to the annual Porsche Night of Champions in Stuttgart, Germany, each class title-winner will earn a trip to the Porsche Ice Force Pro Experience in Canada.
