Rich Walton raced Porsches in PCA Club Racing, a multiclass championship mixing amateur and professional drivers across sixteen classes on the same grid. He competed in the GT3 and GTC5 classes between 2011 and 2018, starting five times across two indexed seasons.[1]
Walton finished second in the PCA Club Racing championship standings in his most recent season and took a podium finish in every race he started; he also claimed one win across his career. Against regular opponents, he typically finished ahead of developing-level drivers but behind semi-professional entrants with broader racing experience, such as Andy Kwitowski, who has fifteen starts in the series and multiple campaigns in NASA and SCCA competition. Walton's strongest results came against professional drivers: he beat Cooper MacNeil, a Silver-graded professional with eighty-seven starts in IMSA WeatherTech and additional experience in the World Endurance Championship, and Michael Avenatti, a professional in IMSA WeatherTech competition, once each.[2]
