UK Cup

After another solid year with good grids, the Competition Car Insurance Radical UK Cup enters 2010 better than ever, with half the grid slots already filled for the coming year.

By popular demand this year’s UK Cup will travel overseas to two of Europe’s most challenging driver’s circuits, the demanding Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium, and the technical Nürburgring GP circuit in Germany. Sharing track time with the Radical European Masters series, these events will offer outstanding value-for-money, with up to five hours of track time per weekend.

The popular 40-minute enduro, two-driver race format continues in 2010, with the series welcoming both professional and amateur drivers alike. An equalisation formula means that gentleman drivers have just as much chance for glory as the pros, ensuring close racing. Competitors will receive exclusive, high-quality series jackets and merchandise, and all are eligible to enter the Sunoco Rolex 24 At Daytona Driver Challenge, a chance to win a drive at the 2011 Daytona 24 Hours. 

Championship features:
• 2x40-minute endurance races per weekend, featuring pit-stop driver change
• Additional points for fastest lap and pole position per class
• Control tyres and series scrutineer to minimise cost and ensure equal competition
• Class structure:
 Masters: SR8 Supersport (2.6l)
 Supersport: SR3 and SR3 RS
 Invitation: run at the organiser’s discretion

Calendar:
• 9 March Snetterton (Test)
• 25 March Brands Hatch (Test)
• 10/11 April Rockingham
• 08/09 May Spa-Francorchamps
• 29-31 May Oulton Park

Radical UK Cup

Selected rounds will be televised on both Sky TV and Radical’s own on-demand web TV service, Radical TV.

Derek’s mature drive to a tenth-in-class finish demonstrated why he was the right man for the prize.Although well-prepared for endurance racing by three seasons in an SR8 Supersport, Derek was undoubtably nervous ahead of his first stint, a late-night drive in the Doran Racing Dallara-Ford he shared with Memo Gidley, Fabrizio Gollin and Brad Jaeger.
