The Climb Continues! iRacing Ringmeister, Porsche Cup & GT3 | LIVE

After the mega highs of the Daytona 24, it’s time for a good old-fashioned reality check 😂

Today I’m jumping back into the iRacing grind and continuing the slow (sometimes painful) climb up the ranks of skill. No endurance glory, no fancy strategy… just laps, laughs, learning and hopefully not binning it too often.

Today’s menu of motorsport madness:
🏁 Ringmeister at the Nürburgring Nordschleife – Ford Mustang FR500S
🏁 Porsche Cup at Road Atlanta
🏁 GT3 racing at Oulton Park

Expect:
✔️ Questionable lines
✔️ The odd “that was ambitious” moment
✔️ Learning in public
✔️ Proper Bongo Racing vibes

If you fancy some chilled racing chat, friendly banter and watching a middle-aged man wrestle with his own talent ceiling… you’re in the right place.

Hit like, grab a brew, say hello in chat and let’s get back to work. 💚
Never too old to race.
