THE RACE SERIES | GT4 SPRINT CUP
All-new for 2020, the Porsche Sprint Challenge GB will take part over twelve rounds and feature identical 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport cars, meaning the competition is focused more on driver talent rather than who has the fastest car.
The new championship bridges the gap between the Porsche Classic Boxster Cup and Porsche Carrera GB.
“Porsche Sprint Challenge GB is the result of demand, from both within and outside of our community, for a championship that bridges the gap between club motorsport and Porsche Carrera Cup GB.” explained James MacNaughton, Motorsport Manager, Porsche Cars Great Britain.
“The 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport is the perfect fit, capable of quick lap times and engaging to drive, but with the advantage of traction control and ABS for less experienced drivers. It’s also realistic for privateers to run the car themselves.
THE CAR | PORSCHE GT4
Launched in January at the 24 Hours of Daytona, the 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport has already tasted success around the world.
The car features a 3.8-litre-flat-six engine delivering 425 hp to the rear wheels with the aid of a six-speed PDK gearbox.
In addition to competing in the new championship, owners will also be able to fit the optional ‘MR’ package to homologate the 718 for participation in international GT4 racing, including the GT4 category of the British GT Championship.
The new 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport represents pure motorsport. The recipe is well known and proven: lightweight, well-balanced performance. Whether driving it at a track day or in wheel-to-wheel competition, it is in its element. The new 718 GT4 Clubsport is more than a commitment to the racetrack, it is a declaration of addiction to motorsport.
