The Series
The long bet, in full — why it exists, where it's home, how it's funded, and the road ahead.
Road Atlanta
Is Home.
Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta is the first stop when the series comes — 4.088 kilometers, twelve turns, and the esses that decide everything. It is where the build begins and the season returns. Every other round is a destination the calendar grows toward; this one is the foundation it grows from.

Built By Someone
Who's Done It Before.
The GT Global Championship is the work of the founder who built and scaled America's collegiate racing series — a national grid of university teams, from a standing start. Building a series from nothing and getting real cars onto real grids is the part almost no one gets past. That track record now points at the one thing GT3 has never had: a world championship an American can drive in at home.
The People In The Seats
Put The Field On The Grid.
The GT Global Championship is the long bet of The Paddock Society — an open membership: anyone can join, and every member helps put the field on the grid. A portion of the Society funds building this championship. This is how customer GT3 racing has always been funded: the owner-drivers put the cars on the grid.
Members Own The Cars
The grid is built from cars the members own and drive — gentleman-driver economics, the same model that funds customer GT3 racing the world over.
A Portion Builds The Series
The club's core is the experience — bespoke track days and the network. A portion of every membership is directed at the long bet: building this championship, one round at a time.
The Calendar Compounds
Start at home, add a country a year, grow the grid with GT4 alongside GT3. With the right people and the patience to do it properly, the bet closes.
The Road Ahead.
A patient, staged build toward a global season. Dates are directional — the work is sequencing the cars, the drivers, the partners and the circuits.
The Championship is named and the founding class is assembled — founding drivers, entrants and partners, through The Paddock Society, an open membership. Road Atlanta is confirmed as home.
The first cars take the grid at home. GT3 and GT4 together, owner-drivers in their own liveries — the format proven on the circuit that matters most to the build.
The provisional first season in full: a nine-round, seven-country calendar across the Americas, Europe, Asia and Oceania — built one country at a time from home, opening at Road Atlanta. See the provisional 2027 season →
A global GT3 & GT4 championship that includes America and belongs to the owner-drivers — built to last, and built to be first.
The Basics.
What is the GT Global Championship?
It is a planned worldwide racing series for GT3 and GT4 cars — the fastest production-based race cars on earth. It is the long-term project of The Paddock Society, built on a simple bet: there is one truly global championship in car racing and it runs F1 cars; the GT3 and GT4 world has none, and this is the series built to close that gap.
Does it race GT3 or GT4 cars?
Both. The Championship runs GT3 and GT4 together as a single multi-class field — the proven format of the world's best sports-car racing. GT4 is the accessible on-ramp; GT3 is the apex.
Where does it race?
Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta in Georgia is home — the first and confirmed stop. The wider ambition is a nine-round, seven-country season across the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Oceania, the provisional 2027 season. Apart from Road Atlanta, those circuits are an aspiration the calendar grows toward, not a confirmed schedule.
How is the championship funded?
Through membership of The Paddock Society. Bespoke track days are the core of the club; a portion of every membership funds building the championship. It is the way customer GT3 racing has always been funded — the owner-drivers put the cars on the grid.
When does it start?
The series is in its build phase. Road Atlanta is home today; the global calendar is the long bet, built one country at a time with the right people and the patience to do it properly. There is no fixed season date — the work now is assembling the cars, the drivers, and the circuits.
Who can drive in it?
It is built around owner-drivers — the people who own and drive the cars, not only FIA-rated professionals. The door in is The Paddock Society — an open membership anyone can join.
Cars. Paddock.
