The Porsche Sports Cup Germany is a club and customer sport series that started its first season in 2005. It is aimed at Porsche drivers of different levels of performance who are enthusiastic about motorsport and who can compete against each other in the various series of the Porsche Sports Cup. The Porsche Sports Cup thus bridges the gap between the Porsche Sport Driving School for amateurs and the Porsche one-make cups ( Carrera Cup or Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup ) for racing professionals.
The races will be held on six different weekends on five racetracks, including the Nürburgring, the Hockenheimring and in Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium.
There are two license-free and four licensed series in which both street-legal and Porsche vehicles modified for racing start.
The series was commissioned by Porsche Deutschland GmbH and organized by Hegersport GmbH owned by racing driver and Porsche Supercup winner Altfrid Heger with the support of MSC Weingarten.
In 2017, over 1200 starters were registered on the six race weekends.

Series
The following racing series start as part of the Porsche Sports Cup Germany:
Royalty free series
Porsche Sports Cup Experience
The Porsche Sports Cup Experience offers Porsche drivers the opportunity to get a first taste of motorsport. The participants experience first hand what is happening next to and on the racetrack: They are guided through the paddock and get an insight into the technical inspection, the timekeeping and the race control. Since the participants also drive themselves, there is a driver briefing for them, which is held by the race director.
After the theoretical introduction to the vehicles, an instructor takes you on the track. This shows the participants the ideal line and explains how and where you can gain or lose time. To take part in the trial day, a Porsche driver needs his own Porsche; registration is via the Porsche Centers.
