TOCA has introduced a super sprint race for its BTC Touring category.The race will be run over just 10 minutes’ duration, and will replace the original 20-25-lap sprint distance.
Series director Richard West believes that the super sprint format will create a great spectacle for fans.“It’s going to be fast and furious,” he says. “At the first round, on the Brands Hatch Indy circuit, drivers will have just 12 laps to do what they are going to do. There will be no punches pulled.”The super sprint will be retained for the whole season, even when the BTC Touring grid is boosted by the arrival of MG and a celebrity wildcard entry. A further manufacturer is also currently in discussion with West.The time freed up in the BTC Touring schedule will be used for an extended pit walkabout and autograph session. The BTC Production class sprint and the main feature race are unaffected by this change. |
