Civic
Cup
The Civic Cup has grown steadily since its launch in 2011, building a reputation for large grids and fiercely contested front-wheel-drive racing.
Its relationship with the TCR UK Championship provides another important dimension. As an official feeder series, The Civic Cup offers drivers the chance to hone their racecraft in closely matched machinery while competing within the wider UK touring car racing landscape.
At the centre of it all remains the Honda Civic Type R. Affordable, proven and hugely popular with competitors and enthusiasts, the EP3 and FN2 provide an ideal foundation for a championship where extracting the maximum from the car – and yourself – is what counts.
