BRSCC LAUNCHES NEW DS3 CUP FOR 2025
Ahead of the BRSCC Driven by Racing event at Silverstone Circuit on 16th and 17th November, the Club is excited to announce the launch of a brand-new single make race category based on the sporty Citroen DS3 1.6VTi (MY2010-15).
The project has been developed in conjunction with long-term Club Partners SW Motorsports, and the race cars have been designed to be affordable, easy to build, reliable, and offering equal performance. By way of a controlled engine map, air intake and exhaust system, the 1600cc 16v engines will output a lively 135bhp, making them a great choice for new racers or those looking to progress from CityCar Cup racing.
Performance, handling and safety will be managed by all cars having to use a tightly controlled mandatory build kit, this containing everything needed to turn a Citroen DS3 donor car into an exciting race ready DS3 Cup machine.
The comprehensive build kit includes an SW Motorsports bolt-in roll cage in your chosen colour, free professional cage fitting (worth over £1000),17 inch 2Forge alloy wheels, 225/45R17 Nankang NS-2R tyres, GAZ Suspension coilover kit with top camber mounts, FIA race seat, safety harness, fire safety system, stainless exhaust, induction kit, suspension poly-bush kit, door cards, footplates, switch panels, fire system, cut-off switches, steering wheel & boss kit, ECU Map and numerous other key parts.
The complete DS3 Cup Build Kit from SW Motorsports is available for just £6,999 (including VAT)
Everyone placing a build kit order in 2024 and through 2025 will also receive two pre-paid race entry fees for the 2025 race season – valued at an additional £800. This added benefit is proudly sponsored by Leicester-based wheel refurbishment company Fix a Wheel.
With donor cars being readily available for less than £1500, a self-prepared race car could be on the grid for less than £8,500
In 2025, DS3 Cup cars will race as a class within the BRSCC Production Cup Series, with the aim to develop a stand-alone DS3 Cup grid in 2026.
SW Motorsports will be showcasing a DS3 Cup car at Driven by Racing. Please drop by their event garage to see it in the flesh, and get in touch with them here to request a test drive.
