The car is capable of out-accelerating a Formula One car up to 100mph but races on mixed tarmac and gravel surfaces against grids of up to six cars, the exciting sport of rallycross attracts tens of thousands of fans across Europe and has recently been successfully introduced to the USA motorsport stage.

Kevin Procter of Procters Motorsport commented: “I am over the moon to have Coach2.com’s backing for the 2011 season, they are a new and upcoming company who are making waves in the coach travel industry and we are very happy to be associated with them. This means once again we can hopefully commit to another European Rallycross Championship and selected rounds of the British Championship.”

He continued: “Tony Bardy Motorsport, who manage my car, have already started making some major improvements which came to light after some recent testing. The ERC is a highly competitive championship and often less than one second separates the top ten so to get on the podium next year would be a dream come true but we will do what we can.”
