The Teekay Couplings MK2 Production GTI Class
The reliable, uncomplicated MK2 Golf GTI is a true motoring legend and is the choice of race car for the novice and seasoned professional alike. The cars ooze character and appeal, and still over 30 years on from when they left the production line remain on of the most rewarding and fun race cars to drive.
The Teekay Couplings MK2 Production GTI Championship was introduced to the BRSCC portfolio as a series in 2011. The iconic 1980s hatchbacks are divided in 2 classes, 16v and 8v models both in either 3 or 5 door variants. Strictly enforced driving standards keep the focus of this club level championship on fun, safe, affordable racing, specifically designed to provide close, friendly and reasonably-priced racing for varying drivers from novice to seasoned veteran. After being granted Championship status by the MSA in 2012 the Teekay Couplings MK2 Production GTI Championship is now firmly established as the one of the best single make saloon car championship’s in the UK and has grown from strength to strength with 2015 experiencing consistent grids of 30 cars. Our ethos is safe and affordable racing. We are a non-profit making club run on behalf of the drivers. All surpluses are reinvested for the benefit of the drivers and the series. We focus on strict driving standards to ensure safe racing backed up by in-house policing of technical and driving regulations. We believe that these criteria are the back bone of a successful club level championship. |
