The Student Motorsport Challenge provides an attainable yet challenging project where success isn’t governed by the largest investment or in-house resources. Led by tutors, student teams will compete in the BRSCC CityCar Cup Drivers Championship and the Student Motorsport Teams Challenge to compete against professionals and their peers.
Challenge students and educators to set up a race-team and find a qualified driver (or work to introduce and a new qualified driver).
Convert a road-going Citroën C1, Peugeot 107 or Toyota Aygo to BRSCC CityCar Cup and Challenge race car specifications.
Compete against other school, college and university teams in the Student Motorsport teams class and against regular competitors in the Drivers Championship.
Enter a series of Challenge off-track awards to measure your team's professional development, media and commercial savviness and car preparation skills.
Make the project part of your curriculum and make use of resources and consultancy provided through your Student Motorsport Challenge entry.
Work with your other departments to build your Challenge team. Bring students into specialist areas such as marketing, media, business and hospitality, and consider how you can collaborate with external partners.
Provide your students with real-world experience and develop them into the skilled, work-ready professionals the industry needs.
Create a rebuild project with lower investments after the initial first year and hone your performance in all areas to keep up with or ahead of the competition.
The cars provide a great year-round project – a perfect blend of performance, affordability and close racing. The regulations are based on the 3-door 2005-2014 Citroën C1, Peugeot 107 and Toyota Aygo.
