Announcements
We’re excited to announce a new partnership between Podium 1 and Grid Finder: two organizations brought together by a shared passion for competitive sim racing. Starting this July, we’re launching two new iRacing championships designed to create structured, rewarding competition for drivers of all levels.
Beginning Monday, July 21, drivers will have the opportunity to compete in weekly championship races, all hosted on the Grid Finder platform and aligned with the official iRacing GT3 schedule.
Races will take place every Monday evening from 6:00 PM CST. Whether you’re a Podium 1 customer looking to test your skills, or an open competitor ready to challenge the grid, there’s a place for you in one of the two new championships.
Register here: gridfinder.com/c/podium-1
This sprint-format series is exclusive to Podium 1 customers. If you’ve purchased from Podium 1, you’re eligible to join the Owners Club Championship and race against fellow customers for the title.
Race Format (Mondays at 6:00 PM CST):
CJ and the Podium 1 team will confirm eligible drivers. To get involved, visit podium1racing.com and explore their full range of sim racing gear.
Immediately following the Owners Club event, the Open Championship is open to all sim racers, no purchase or pre-qualifying required.
Race Format:
Driver licenses, Bronze, Silver, or Gold, will be assigned based on your performance in the live Podium 1 Time Attack event within iRacing. You’ll earn points based on your finish in both your class and the overall field.
This class-based system is designed to create fair, competitive racing for everyone involved.
If you’re ready to race, registration is open now at:
gridfinder.com/c/podium-1
For questions, updates, or to connect with other racers, head to the discussion channels in our Discord server. The Grid Finder and Podium 1 teams will be on hand to help.
We look forward to seeing you on the grid.
