DUNLOP FORD FIESTA CHAMPIONSHIP

The Ford Fiesta Championship started in 1997 as a Club Championship, having formerly been a Ford manufacturer series in the T.O.C.A. package of racing. The first year passed with good average grids being seen, and successive seasons seeing the numbers grow. The Fiesta cars run to a strict Group N format, which means that the emphasis is squarely on the drivers ability.

The 2012 Dunlop Ford Fiesta Championship, will feature four classes of Ford Fiesta race cars. The Class A Fiesta Si (130bhp) is probably one of the most consistent Ford race cars to have been seen on the track.

Not to be outdone, the Class B Fiesta Zetec arguably boasts one of the best engineered cars for corner taking and dazzles lesser opposition. This 90 bhp car continues to gather popularity and always guarantees exciting race action.

Class C features the Ford Fiesta ST which had an increasingly significant presence on the track in 2010. The Fiesta ST has brought further interest in the Fiesta Championship and will help to reinforce the magic which is Fiesta Racing.

New last year was the addition of the Ford Fiesta Zetec S. This brilliantly engineered Fiesta boasts enhanced strength and a lighter bodyshell direct from the manufacturer.

Race day action is administered by the British Racing & Sports Car Club.
