Ginetta GT Supercup
The Ginetta GT Supercup is a one-make racing series based in the United Kingdom, using identical Ginetta G50 and G55 sports cars. It is a support series for the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC).
The championship began as the Ginetta G50 Cup in 2008, supporting the British Formula Three Championship and British GT Championship. In 2009 it moved to support the BTCC. In 2011, with the introduction of the Ginetta G55, the championship became the Ginetta GT Supercup.[1][2]
Racing car
The regulations include sealed engines, gearboxes and differentials. This prevents expensive development of the cars and ensures that all of the cars are identical, helping to provide close racing. The car can be easily modified to race in other series such as British GT, Britcar, Spanish GT Championship and Belcar.[3]
Race weekend
Meetings are usually made up of three 20-minute races. The grid for the first race is determined by a 20-minute qualifying session. The results of the first race forms the grid for the second race. The grid for the third race is decided by reversing between 4 and 6 of the top 10 finishers from the second race.
