Bit more info , On this new event for 2005

GT Battle is an all new car event for your calendar.

Held at Rockingham Motor Speedway,


SPECTATORS will have the choice of 5 grandstands, infield or the pit garage roof, allowing first class views of all the action. If nine hours of high excitement sounds too much to handle, you can always take a more sedate look around the competitor/trade paddocks, show ‘n’ shine competition and club car displays.

CONFIRMED COMPETITORS include

Triple TOTB winner ‘Rocket’ Ronnie and his 200mph+ Skyline.

Sumo Power will have their new EVO 8 track car, plus their new 350z drift weapon.

RC Developments and their 900bhp Evo.

Simon Norris (builder of world’s fastest Evo) and his brand new car.

And Redline magazine’s 606bhp Sierra Cosworth.



GT Battle plays host to:

- Time Attack - One hot lap against the clock
You've warmed the car up, the tyres are up to temperature - you've one lap to win the competition. It takes more than big BHP to win on track - the suspension, the braking setup. And the driver.


- Drift Battle - The UKs best drift drivers head to head
From the hills of Japan drifting to Rockingham Motor Speedway. A demonstration of supreme car control, super fast sideways action and plenty of tyre smoke!


- Zero to 60 - Run What You Brung Traffic Light Grand Prix
Ever wondered how your car stands up against a 400bhp EVO? Have you had long running arguments with your mates over who has the quickest car? Now is the time to test it! On track, with timing equipment, side by side. It's you against the lights! No arguments.
