SILVERLAKE DS3 CUP

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).

With a comprehensive build kit for £6,999 including VAT, and donor cars being readily available for less than £1,500, a self-prepared race car could be on the grid for less than £8,500

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 DS3 donor car into a 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.

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 championship grid in 2026.
