Riley Dickinson is an up and coming professional American driver in the Porsche Deluxe Carrera Cup Series. The series uses identical Porsche 911 GT3 Cup Type 992 race cars producing 510 hp. The series features Pro, Pro-Am and Amateur drivers with the majority being Pro drivers. He started off the 2023 season in Victory Lane at Sebring (twice, in the two race format) and his success has continued by winning nine races so far and clinching the season championship before the final round. We caught up with him early in the season at the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach press luncheon where he fills us in on how he got started in racing, where he’s competed up until now, and his plans for the future. His career path in motorsports is one step closer to his dream job and only time will tell whether he reaches that goal. Enjoy!
NOTE: Riley Dickinson won Race 1 at Long Beach and earned another podium with third place in Race 2. He will be finishing out the last two races of the season October 20-22, 2023 at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX as a support race to the FIA Formula One World Championship.
