| The British Ford Fiesta Championship 2009 |
The championship started in 1997 as a support for the Touring Car Championship and has grown steadily over the years to become one of the largest single make championships in the U.K. The current regulations cover 3 classes; Class A – which is for the Fiesta Si (1800cc) 130 bhp with limited modifications. Class B – for the Fiesta Zetec (1400cc) with little modification permitted. Class C – for the newer Fiesta S.T 150, (2 litre) 150bhp, again with very little modification permitted so it is basically in showroom specification although some trim removal is allowed, and of course all cars must be fitted with the mandatory safety equipment – roll cage, fire extinguisher system, etc. Classes A and B have a minimum weight requirement of 995 kilograms including the driver at the end of a race, whilst the minimum for Class C cars is 1110 kilograms. All cars must run on the control tyres produced by Dunlop. Cars are scrutinised before and after racing to ensure adherence to the regulations. It is intended that by limiting the amount of modifications allowed to the cars the results will better reflect driver a)bility as opposed to budget. In 2009 Team Hood Racing will be competing in Class C of the Championship in our eye catching orange machine supported by our main sponsor – The John Harrison Group, Ford dealers of Lowdham and Newark. . |
