Created by the same technical development team as the hugely popular 116 Trophy & 116 Sprint, this new series uses the first generation 120i Coupe as the basis for an exciting new one-make 190bhp BMW sprint formula. Donor cars are plentiful and great value, whilst the conversion uses all the same proven chassis control parts and incredible value as the 116 Trophy.

Platform & Chassis

2-litre ‘N43’ engined E82 BMW 120i Coupe models. Donor cars are available secondhand from just £1500. There is a mandatory ‘control’ roll cage, currently priced at £1392 inc. VAT.

Engine & Transmission

BMW N43 B20 engine. There is a throttle body upgrade, replacement sports exhaust/catalyst (£450) and ECU re-flash (£250), but the engine remains largely standard. Standard six-speed manual, and the dual mass flywheel may be replaced by a single mass option if desired.

Suspension & Brakes

A control coilover damper kit from GAZ Shocks is adjustable at the rear only for equality, budget and to reduce complication for newcomers. The kit includes adjustable billet front top mounts and is priced at just £778 to registered drivers. Brakes remain standard, but pad choice is free.

Wheels & Tyres

All cars use Nankang AR-1 control tyres, priced at just £87.50 each. Wheels are any 16″ OEM BMW subject to regulations, or Revolution CR10.

Rounds

Typically 14 races (seven ‘double-headers’) in the season.

Costs

750 Motor Club membership is £95 for 12 months, season registration is £135 per driver (inc. 116 Trophy endurance races), and race entry fees are typically £385-£420 per double-header (1 x 15min qualifying, 2 x 15min races) at different venues. Complete ‘Arrive & Drive’ packages are available for those who would rather not own and run their own car – see the Arrive & Drive tab.
