Classes

TCR Finland

TCR is a touring car category, which is contested by Touring Car -regulation race cars. The cars are based on sporty family cars familiar to most on the road. Cars that can be found from the grid include Audi, Hyundai, Honda, Cupra and Volkswagen.
In practise the race cars are racing versions of four- or five-door production models, powered by a two-litre four cylinder turbocharged engine producing 330 to 350 break horsepower.

Legends

Legends cars originate from the United States and are loosely based on the traditional American coupes and sedans of the 1930s and 40s. Acceleration 0-100 km/h is around four seconds and top speed varies by gear ratios, but is generally around 140 – 200 km/h.

V1600

When it comes to motorsports, V1600 is definitely one of the most cost-effective ways of competing. Yet the category offers the opportunity to learn setting up a car in multiple ways. The category is based on a maximum 1,600 cc road cars from the 2000s. The engines produce around 120-140 break horsepower and the race spec suspension create very cost-effective and sensible racers out of modern cars.
