Opel Adam cup part of Czech rallysprint championship 2014.
Looks like in 2014 in Italy there will be a trophy for the former Peugeot 106s ans 206s :confused:
On tuesday Citroën Racing published a press release announcing 7 european countries in 2014 with Citroën Racing trophies...
I see:
-France
-Germany
-Italy
-Poland
-UK
-CZ
??
What's the last one :confused:
Certainly not Belgium. In Belgium the Citroën Racing Trophy has been cancelled for next year, due to lack of interest...
I think it could be Switzerland. EDIT: Yes, I am right according to www.info-rallye.ch
Looks like there will be a Ford Fiesta "I-Drive Cup" in Portugal this season :confused:
It's with a 1.0l Ecoboost Fiesta with 100bhp (more or less) but it's mainly for circuit racing and HillClimbing! It could be present in the last 3 rounds of the Poprtuguese Champ (asphalt) but it's still soon, so it's only speculationQuote:

I think that here in CZ we'll have also Opel Adam cup again which is normally held on a mixture of events from various championships/cups.
By the way marketing director of Opel CZ Mr. Barčák is currently leading R2 class in the opening championship event ahead of all Peugeot R2 cup drivers...
French junior championship will be a one-make cup with Fiesta R2T "National".

I don't post much in this forum so I hope this is on topic. The UK hasn't had a major one make series for some considerable number of years. I am interested to know what one make series are currently running elsewhere in Europe and the cost of a prepared vehicle for the series.
Here in Czech republic we have Opel Adam Cup and Peugeot 208 Cup.
Opel Adam Cup is being run with cup cars, i.e. rather cheap cars with stock 1.6 140Hp engine but sequential gearbox etc. It's also held on shorter events (mainly events from Rallysprint series plus sometimes one leg of selected major events).
Peugeot 208 Cup is run with R2 cars and is therefore more expensive. It's also being held on the events of the national championship which are two days long.
I can't tell You about the costs though.
Thank you; that is interesting. How many entries is it attracting per event? Does somebody have a link to the technical regulation please? Is something similar running in other countries?Quote:

Opel Adam Cup is also run in Germany. Apart from Germans, it has some international entries - at least from Finland and Poland. I know nothing about the costs.
Fiesta ST 150 Trophy is being run in UK. Sensible cost picture.

Here is the specification of the car (in German): https://www.opel-motorsport.com/rall...rzeug-technik/Quote:

Usually there are around 6 cars per event but last year was better with some really good drivers (Kamenec, Tomaszczyk). In Germany it's around 20 crews. Don't know if this year Opel cup continues also in France where it was last year.
I think there's also a 208 cup in Hungary :confused:
But with quite a poor entry on it :mark:
There were plans for it, it was announced, but basically nobody entered. Instead, most of the 208s are used in the Rally2 championship. The situation is quite strange, as many of the crews who would enter don't have the money to compete in the ORB (that's why they're doing Rally2), but that's exactly where the cup is / would be. So either they bring down the cup to Rally2, or they scrap it next year, I think the latter is more likely unfortunately...Quote:
