Baltic Touring Car Championship

The Baltic Touring Car Championship or BaTCC is a touring car racing series held each year in the Baltic states. The championship is regulated by a board containing two representatives each from the automobile associations of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Eligible cars for the championship have often changed over recent years. In 2009 there were class entries for Super Production, Super 1600, National Cars, Baltic Open I and II cars.

Drivers from the BaTCC with Super Production and Super 1600 cars are eligible to enter the FIA European Touring Car Cup[1]

The race day format features two races per round, both with standing starts. There were a total of six rounds in 2009, with two rounds each at three different circuits. Previous years also rounds held in Ahvenisto, Finland.

Cars used are often Toyota Celicas, Honda Civics and BMW Z3s.
