World Challenge Team Profiles - Real Time Racing



RealTime Racing




RealTime Racing has been successfully fielding Hondas and Acuras in a variety of motorsports series since 1987. After winning ice racing championships with Honda Civics and CRXs in the late 鈥80s, RealTime set their sights on the SCCA PRO Rally Championship. After finishing second in a partial season with an Acura Integra GSR in 1992, they won the Production class title the following year.聽 While performance rallying posed a wonderful challenge to the team, the nature of the sport in the US made it difficult to attract the sponsorship necessary to run a properly supported effort.
So, during that same year of 1993, RealTime shifted their focus to road racing. The SCCA World Challenge Series was one which team principal Peter Cunningham was familiar with, as he had been competing in the series and its predecessor for a variety of teams since the beginning in 1985.
Heading into the 2010 season, RealTime and Peter Cunningham hold many of the World Challenge records including Career Wins (32 for Cunningham), Top-Three finishes (Cunningham @ 87), and Manufacturer Class Victories (Acura @ 72)
