NANKANG TYRE BMW SUPERCUP CHAMPIONSHIP

The BMW Compact Cup has enjoyed a long and successful history since it began back in 2012, switching to the BRSCC from 2016 onwards and continuing to be one of the most entertaining grids in UK club motorsport. The E36 Compact consistently produces fun, exciting and excellent cost-effective tin-top racing and regularly produces excellent racing wherever it appears. Cars can lap quicker than expected at most UK circuits despite lower horsepower levels and can hold their own against much more powerful machinery; a club racer that’s truly a challenge to master!

In the last few seasons, the BRSCC has also been developing the new BMW 1 Series SuperCup, seen as the next generation of BMW racing in the club and providing a competitive platform for drivers to move up into more modern and powerful machinery. Using the F20/F21 1.6 turbo series as the donor car, build kits can be bought from Club partners SW Motorsports, providing an excellent cost to performance ratio. It provides an excellent rear wheel drive alternative to powerful front wheel tin-top series within the BRSCC, such as the Fiesta ST240 Championship and Audi TT Cup Racing Championship.

From the 2025 season onward the BRSCC elected to merge the two series together onto one grid and rebrand it as the BRSCC BMW SuperCup Championship. This sees both Compact Cup and 1 Series SuperCup cars competing together on track, with Compact Cup cars and 1 Series SuperCup cars running within their own classes.

The BMW SuperCup Championship is destined for further growth through 2026 and beyond.
