Career
Early career
Van Eijndhoven started his car racing career in the Supercar Challenge, making his debut in the final two rounds of the 2019 season as he began a partnership with JW Race Service.[1] He continued with the team for his full-time debut the following year, where he won two races and came runner-up to the series.[2][3][4]
Porsche competition
In 2021, van Eijndhoven competed in the Porsche Carrera Cup Benelux and did one guest cameo in the final round of the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany at the Hockenheimring for JW Race Service.[5] At the end of year, he was shortlisted for the Porsche Junior Shootout, but was not chosen as a junior.[6]

Van Eijndhoven switched over to GP Elite for the 2022 season and drove full-time in the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany, recording a best finish of sixth at the Sachsenring on his way to 9th.[7] He also contested the only Benelux rounds of the Porsche Supercup at Spa-Francorchamps and Zandvoort.[8] In 2023, van Eijndhoven contested a dual campaign of the Porsche Supercup and the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany, coming 13th in the former and 8th in the latter.[9] He achieved his maiden PCCD podium in the final round at the Hockenheimring.[10]
In 2024, van Eijndhoven continued with the same dual campaign in the Porsche Supercup and the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany.[11] He claimed his maiden Supercup podiums in the only Benelux rounds of the season – Spa-Francorchamps and Zandvoort – and ended the championship sixth in the standings.[12][13][14][15] Van Eijndhoven achieved his first PCCD pole position in the opening round at Imola Circuit.[16] He scored the first podium of his campaign in the second round at the Oschersleben.[17] A round later, he got another pole position on home soil at Zandvoort but it didn't amount to any points at all in the race.[18] He collected two podiums in both races of the Sachsenring,[19][20] and started the opening race of the final round at the Hockenheimring on pole position, which amounted to his maiden win in Porsche racing.[21] He collected one more podium in the final race of his campaign before ending fourth in the standings.[22]
Van Eijndhoven continued with GP Elite for another dual campaign of the 2025 Porsche Supercup and the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany.[23] He finished the former sixth in the standings,[24] and the latter third in the standings with two poles and four podiums, having a consistent campaign despite recording no wins.[25]
GT3 career
For the 2026 season, van Eijndhoven switched from Porsche one-make series into endurance racing, and was part of the winning crew in the 6 Hours of Abu Dhabi with Antares Au and Loek Hartog.[26] Van Eijndhoven then contested the European Le Mans Series for Proton Competition in the LMGT3 category.[27] He achieved his first ELMS podium in the third round at the 4 Hours of Imola, partnering Harry King and Martin Berry.[28] A round later at the 2026 4 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, he collected another podium and a best result of second place alongside Berry and Alessio Picariello.[29] Van Eijndhoven also made his debut in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup for Herberth Motorsport, sharing a Porsche 911 GT3 R (992.2) in Bronze Cup with Ralf Bohn and team owner Robert Renauer.[30]
