thern Europe. TCR is the perfect oppor-
tunity to build a long term programme
for the years to come.
”
The Scandinavian Touring Car Cham-
pionship was born in 2011, following
the merge of the Swedish and the Da-
nish Touring Car championships that
were reserved for Super Touring cars.
For two seasons the new series adopted
the FIA Super 2000 regulations, but
from 2013 it switched to Silhouettes.
In 2017 the new series will be entirely
run in Sweden, but Ludin is already
looking at an expansion in the near fu-
ture:
“There is a lot of interest from the
Danish, Norwegian and Finnish teams.
As the promoter of the Rally X Nordic we
have built excellent relationships with
the National Sporting Authorities of our
neighbouring countries, which will make
easy to expand
.”
Touring Car competition has always
been very popular in the Scandinavian countries,
especially in the years of Super Touring (here below)
and Super 2000 (bottom)
