The cars are race designed single-seater cars with a
strong tubular steel chassis, mildly modified super
strong Audi/VW engines and gearbox, race brakes and
fully adjustable suspension. Over it all is draped a
VW Beetle look-alike glass fibre body.
The races are all endurance, typically 4 and 5 hours
in the UK, complete with pit stops and all the drama
of such an event. Teams vary from 2 - 6 drivers in the
UK and thanks to carefully designed rules, how ever
many in a team your chance of success is exactly the
same.
And with the car engines and gearboxes sealed and regulations
strictly controlled, the racing is super close and the
running costs remarkably low.
Providing backing to the series in the UK and right
across Europe is Uniroyal Tyres, a major tyre brand,
whose RainSport1 tyres are used on the race cars to
provide outstanding wet and dry weather grip.
