Officially speaking, Rallycross is a speed event taking place on a permanent track consisting of both sealed and unsealed surfaces.Unofficially, Rallycross is wildchild of motor sport. The offspring of a liaison between circuit racing and rallying. A place where it's kosher to use the kerbs and grass. Where sideways is good. And where fun is top of the agenda.The BTRDA Clubmans Rallycross Championship was established in 1977 and continues to be successful, providing both newcomers and 'budget' racers with a strong series events at the best UK venues. For the last few years the BTRDA Clubmans Championship has enjoyed a place on the support programme for the MSA British championship.The championship caters for all classes of car. The strongest class in the championship is Stock Hatch, lightly modified 'GTi-type' cars of up to 1600cc engine capacity. Above this the SuperModified category is open to two-wheel drive cars that are permitted wide ranging modifications. The class contains sub-categories based on engine size. There is also a class for Junior Rallycross. Open to drive of 14 to 16-years-old, the class currently uses only a control-spec 1000cc Mini.
