Martini tonic for 2-litre cars

The International Supersports Cup has come to an end with the announcement that the 2-litre cars from the pan-European series will be merged with the HSCC’s Martini Trophy.

The two series for 2-litre sports-racing cars of the 1970s will join forces in 2012 under HSCC management and will be titled the Martini Trophy with Supersports.

The new series will have a five-event, 10-race schedule at high-profile historic race meetings, and former Super sports promoter Silvio Kalb plans to race his March 75S.

“This is the best news for a long time for 2-litre sports car racing,” said Grahame White from the HSCC.
