ProSpeed Competition drivers Maxime Soulet and Marc Goossens were honored at the 2011 Night of Champions, the traditional Porsche Motorsport prize-giving ceremony. Each year, Porsche Motorsport honors their best worldwide private Porsche race drivers. Thanks to his FIA GT3 European Championship performances and the Belcar Endurance champion title, Maxime Soulet finished 4th overall worldwide. Winner of the Belcar Endurance title, the Le Mans Series runner-up Marc Goossens was classified 10th. Members of the ProSpeed Competition family, David Loix and Markus Palttala were also mentioned. For the occasion, the CPL Trans-Round Up Porsche 911 GT3-R was displayed at the entrance of the Porsche AG Research & Development Centre Casino, Weissach, Germany.

The 2011 Porsche Cup classification is highly representative. Drivers earned points towards this year’s traditional competition in 18 Grand Touring and prototype race series worldwide as well as at selected long distance races. The winner of the Porsche Cup takes home a Porsche 911 Carrera S.

Maxime Soulet (Driver): “This was my first complete season at an international level and I did it in the right way. I’m very happy. My thanks to Paul van Splunteren, Marc Goossens, Spike Communications and ProSpeed Competition for their support.”

Rudi Penders (Team Principal): “Breeder of young stars? Yes, this is a part of ProSpeed Competition’s objectives. Last year, Luc Goris and I were happy to bring to light Enzo Ide at a national level. In addition we were delighted to confirm our “scouting” with Maxime Soulet at a European level. Such recognition is important for any young professional driver however this is not an end in itself. This is just the beginning of their work.”
