| The British Ford Fiesta Championship 2009 |
| The Ford Fiesta Championship started in 1997 as a Club Championship,
having been a Ford manufacturer series in the T.O.C.A. package of
racing The first year past with good average grids being seen, and
successive seasons seeing the numbers grow. The Fiesta Car runs to
strict Group N format, which means that the emphasis is squarely on
the driver`s ability. With the introduction of a new Fiesta model,
it was felt that sufficient support would guarantee the future of
the many Ford |Fiesta Si (130bhp) saloon cars that abound the series.
When the Fiesta Zetec 1400 also joined the championship the grids
grew. 2008 saw that increase continue as the current model Fiesta
ST became eligable conforming to group N build specification and these
reglulations. The excellent Dunlop slicks are used as teh control
tyre for the Championship. The Championship Regulations are very comprehensive
and there is thorough scrutineering. The 2009 season got off to a
great start at Silverstone with a 32 car Grid!!! In 2009 Hoodracing will be contesting Class C. This is for the Fiesta ST class with no modifications allowed to the engines which means factory power of 150 bhp These cars, however, must meet a minimum weight restriction of 1100 kgs (including driver) . |
