BRSCC AIRTEC MOTORSPORT FIESTA CHAMPIONSHIP

Map

Description

The AIRTEC Motorsport Fiesta Championship is a single-make tin-top championship dedicated to various models of the popular and much loved Ford Fiesta, one of the UKs best-selling small cars of all time, as well as being a staple of British motorsport for more than 30 years.

There are two classes of Fiesta that are eligible to compete in the championship the first is the evergreen Mk6 ST150 which has been present for several years and was known as the fastest and most popular class by many during that time. This changed when the new Mk7 Fiesta ST180 was introduced as part of the new ST240 class, dubbed so due to the power increase from a standard figure to a championship-spec ECU map producing 240bhp.

Many drivers have used the ST150s as a stepping stone to move up into the more powerful and contemporary ST240 cars, showcasing a two-step platform for future saloon car racers to progress within the championship. Currently, any drivers graduating from the BRSCC Fiesta Junior Championship have the ability to move to the senior ranks using the same car, with only a change to the slick Goodyear tyres and the removal of the mandatory FJC engine restrictor required to complete the senior progression.

This is a championship with a proven track record of creating some of the biggest and best racing stars from the touring car world, with Ash Sutton, Matt Neal, Gordon Shedden, and Colin Turkington all having honed their craft at the wheel of a Fiesta at one stage in their careers. Not only that, but many young drivers have graduated to the series from the Fiesta Junior Championship using the same Mk6 Fiesta ST150 albeit with a couple of minor changes, therefore making it a cost-effective route from the junior ranks into senior-level racing without the need to purchase a new car.

It also features some of the best paddock atmospheres youll find in club motorsport, with regular social occasions at various points in the season allowing teams, drivers, families, and sponsors to get together, make friends, and most importantly have fun while still maintaining an air of competition.
