GR Cup Racing!

I am making the push to run the GR Cup race weekend as an official driver entry for the Barber Motorsports Park event on September 25-27, 2026!

Please follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61592816786045

SRO Competition License has been granted, car has been purchased, race support from BSI Racing has been arranged and testing is underway.

Excited is an understatement...now I'm working to get some funding to help me along....working to make the FT86Club community proud!

Moderators, if this isn't acceptable, please remove this post.

FT86Club members, you may know that motorsports is expensive, in order to make this race a reality, I am admittedly a few $$ short.

I am seeking some sponsorship support funding to help make this a reality. If you own, or know of a business, that would like to participate in some Motorsports advertising, I'd love to talk!

I've got different levels of promotion and advertising available, let's find something that makes sense for each of us! Message me for my contact information.

I've also got T-Shirts available to help fund this, you can get yours here: https://openfender.com/profile/will-conklin/shop

Fellow FT86Club members, the series requires me to purchase 2 new sets of Continental tires, a 55 gal drum of race fuel in addition to the entry fees....between the car, the license, the entry fees and the team support I'm down to just needing this, lodging and meals for the 4 day trip...I am so close to be able to live this dream....if you can help, any little bit....I would be forever grateful! A little under 6 weeks to go.....
