ICARA Career[]

303AP Season[]

Erik vun Trau made the most of his Bowdani Kepern-Hodges ride, finishing a very respectable 15th in the standings.

304AP Season[]

Erik vun Trau is the official worst-luck racer this season: moved from Kepern-Hodges to the burgeoning Kunghai team, he was unable to convert many top-10 qualifying positions into actual high race finishes, while his team mate finished in the top-10 of the season. To make matters worse, vun Trau sustained an injury in Eastern Delgamia, and had to sit out the entire rest of the season to allow for his recovery.

305AP Season[]

The traumatic injury suffered during the 304AP season ended up sidelining vun Trau for the entire 305AP ICARA season. With nowhere left to turn in the world of open-wheel racing, vun Trau made the jump to the RZOEAZ, signing with Harrysun Motorsports to drive the team's No. 5 Straymahq. He made no starts in the ICARA series in 305AP.

306AP Season[]

With the RZOEAZ abruptly on hiatus beginning in 306AP, vun Trau returned to ICARA, resuming his driving duties with Kunghai. In retrospect, the 306AP ICARA season was the high point of vun Trau's career, with five wins and finishing as points runner-up by only a single point at the end of the year!

307AP Season[]

After an incredible 306AP season where he finished 2nd in the points standings, vun Trau returned to Kunghai to try to improve on his previous year's finish. He started off the 307AP season where he left off in 306AP, snagging a win and two podiums in the first five races. The rest of the season, though, fell apart, leaving vun Trau with a 9th place points finish for the year behind his teammate, Jacques Taniai, who won his second ICARA driver championship. The performances earned both drivers contract extensions with Kunghai into the 308AP season.

308AP Season[]

310AP Season[]

Vun Trau recovered from a winless 309AP with a whirlwind season, his best since 306AP, including 5 podiums and a home win at Imperial City, plus 2 more top finishes. After Nikhlas Denim's unexpected accident and forced absence, his constant finishes in the top 16 propelled him suddenly to championship contention, However, it was the last podium of 310, at the ICARA 500, that would prove heartbreaking for vun Trau. Edificio Novilla of Xibalbá ran a jewel of a race, staying in front of vun Trau, and relegated him to 4th place... which left him one point behind his countryman Bruno Maxim as the runner-up, for the second time in 5 years. Small consolation was had when they were feted as the first Zartanian 1-2 in the driver rankings.

315AP Season[]

After a brief, and still inexplicable hiatus, vun Trau returned to the track in 315AP, filling in for the injured champion, Holice Demarca, for a single race in the CeltWare Royal Aurora 300 in Cruisana. The Zartanian veteran made it seem like he was never away, and impressively qualified the No. 12 car (No. 1 is reserved for the reigning champion only, that's why Erik opted to run his old No. 12) in the top-10, and ran within the points paying ranks all race, before running too high on cold tires after his third pit stop, kissing the wall in turn 2 and forcing him to retire.

316AP Season[]

Vun Trau made a surprise full-time return to ICARA racing after over 3 years away from the series with the new Wesmeritéan team Frontiénacq. Vun Trau's experience was invaluable to the newly established team, although racing success was moderate. Vun Trau managed two podium finishes, and one win in a Q-Race. He clearly got the better of his rookie team mate Adelaide Saray-Sadora, however.
