Classes

Supercar

The Supercar class is rallycross’ real heavyweight class. The cars are manufactured on the basis of ordinary passenger cars but with engines of 600 horsepower and four-wheel drive, the cars have an acceleration that is in class with an F1 car. A supercar car can easily be described as a combination of a tank and a dragster – it is built to withstand ironing, work on all types of surfaces and is still faster than anything else that can run on four wheels. The driver has to help control the power with his right foot – there are no active electronics to make it easier for the driver. The regulations for supercar are the same in Rallycross in the European Championships and the World championships. Several of the cars running in RallyX also participate in World RX and the European Championships.

Supercar Lites

Supercar Lites offers performance that is close to the Supercar and the purpose of the class is also to serve as a gateway for drivers who want to make their way to rallycross’ top category. The car is designed by Olsbergs MSE to emulate the characteristics of the supercar cars as far as possible. Four-wheel drive, 2.4-liter engine of about 320 horsepower and a six-speed sequential box, all mounted in a tube frame chassis manufactured by the CDS give drivers a real challenge.
