About Kyoto Motorsport

Who We Are

Kyoto Motorsport is a professional sim racing and drifting team dedicated to pushing the boundaries of virtual motorsports while bridging the gap between sim racing and real-world competition. What started in 2014 as a drift-focused Gran Turismo team has evolved into a multi-discipline powerhouse with drivers competing in Assetto Corsa, iRacing, Gran Turismo, and more.

Our mission? To develop top-tier sim racers, create a thriving motorsports community, and open doors to real-world racing opportunities.

Our Journey

🚀 Founded in 2014 as a grassroots drifting team in Gran Turismo.
🏆 Expanded into multiple platforms—Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.
💨 500+ alumni members—from sim racers to real-world motorsports professionals.
🔗 Strong industry connections bridging sim racing with real motorsports.

From precision drifting to high-speed endurance racing, Kyoto Motorsport continues to grow, innovate, and leave its mark on the global racing scene.

The Evolution: A New Identity

In August 2023, Kyoto Motorsport underwent a major transformation, rebranding under a new vision inspired by Sakamoto Ryōma—a historical Japanese figure known for innovation, adaptability, and breaking barriers. His pioneering spirit aligns with our mission to push the limits of motorsports, embrace progress, and elevate sim racing to new heights.

Under this new banner, Kyoto Motorsport thrives as a multi-discipline, multi-platform racing community, committed to training drivers, fostering competition, and opening pathways to real-world motorsports.
