2020 Britcar Trophy Championship

The 2020 Dunlop Trophy Championship is a motor racing championship for production cars held across England. The Trophy championship was created specifically for production vehicles as a Britcar championship separate from the much faster GT and Touring Cars of the Endurance Championship. It is the 18th season of a Britcar championship, the 1st run as the Britcar Trophy Championship and the 1st run as the Dunlop Trophy Championship. The championship will include Class 5 cars, and two additional classes, 6 & 7. This will be the inaugural season of the Britcar Trophy Championship. The season will begin on 11 July at Croft Circuit and end on 1 November at Snetterton Circuit. All rounds will take place on the same weekend as the Britcar Endurance Championship round. There will also be a non-championship round at the Spa-Francorchamps in support of the 2019-20 FIA World Endurance Championship, where the Trophy category competitors will participate in two races with the Endurance Category cars.[1] The Michelin Clio Cup Series will join the Britcar Trophy Championship grid for the inaugural season with the Clio cars having a separate class but still eligible to compete for the championship title.[2]
