Kellymoss Set to Launch 2026 Porsche Sprint Challenge & Porsche Endurance Challenge Seasons with Returning Veterans, Family Lineups, and International Talent

Fitchburg, Wisconsin (March 3, 2026) — Kellymoss is set to begin its 2026 Porsche Sprint Challenge and Porsche Endurance Challenge seasons with a roster that blends long-standing program pillars, returning alumni, family pairings, and a first-year international addition this week at Sebring International Raceway.

Belgian driver Karel Staut joins Kellymoss for his first season, bringing international racing experience and a disciplined development mindset. With a background in European karting and progression through high-level junior formulas in the United States, Staut adds a preparation-first approach that aligns with Kellymoss’ long-term driver development philosophy.

A familiar name also returns to the lineup as Kurt Koch rejoins the program after previously competing with Kellymoss in 2017 and 2018. Koch is back to gain additional track experience and take on a new chapter within the team, competing alongside his son, Ford Koch, in the Porsche Endurance Challenge. His return reflects both longevity within the team and the family legacy that continues to define the paddock.

That family theme carries through the season, with Keith McGovern, who began racing with Kellymoss in 2019, now anchoring a true family racing presence alongside his son, Blake, and brother-in-law, Scott Neal. Keith’s multi-season involvement underscores a sustained commitment to Porsche competition and continued growth within the Kellymoss environment.

After teaming with his father in the Porsche Endurance Challenge in 2025, Blake McGovern transitions into a full Sprint Challenge season in 2026, stepping into a role that will see him operate as both teammate and friendly competitor. Blake also enters the year with momentum after earning a vice-championship in the 2026 Kellymoss x iRacing Championship, reinforcing his pace and progression as he brings that form to the real-world Sprint calendar.

Scott Neal, who first joined Keith on track with Kellymoss in 2019, returns with experience across multiple Porsche series under the team’s banner. His versatility and range across formats continue to reflect the adaptability required to succeed in Sprint competition, where execution and consistency are often the difference-makers.

One of the cornerstone presences in the program remains Bill Peluchiwski, whose involvement with Kellymoss dates back to 2008, making him among the longest-tenured drivers in the team. His 18 years of partnership with the program reflect enduring trust, continuity, and a shared commitment to Porsche racing year after year.

Also returning for 2026 is Spencer Propper, who enters his second active racing season with the team after beginning his journey through the Kellymoss Online Driver Academy. Propper’s development from digital coursework to on-track competition continues to exemplify the structured pathway Kellymoss has built to support drivers as they sharpen their skills, preparation, and racecraft.

“It genuinely warms my heart to see the family representation woven throughout this lineup,” said Principal and Chief Business Officer Victoria Thomas. “Motorsport is at its strongest when families craft memories together. Year after year, we are not only racing side by side, we are building something meaningful under the tent. Watching families create memories that will last a lifetime, while we continue to grow a team family of our own, makes this season especially powerful.”

The first Porsche Sprint Challenge and Endurance Challenge rounds will take place at Sebring International Raceway from March 6 to 8.
