By

The 24H Series, an endurance series for GT and touring cars, has created a class for TCR specification cars ahead of the 2016 season.

“TCR is growing quickly, with no less than 16 national and regional series announced for 2016, on top of the TCR International series, and an ever-increasing number of cars from various manufacturers becoming available. We are delighted for having reached an agreement with WSC to use the TCR Series’ regulations and BOP,” said Gerrie Willems on behalf of Dutch agency CREVENTIC, promoter of the 24H Series.

The 24H Series was started last year and the 2016 season starts in January 2016 with the Dubai 24 hours, followed by a further five races.

“We are pleased and proud for the deal with CREVENTIC that makes the TCR cars eligible for the 24H Series, which is growing quickly after a successful maiden season. We are looking forward to a long standing and successful cooperation between TCR and the 24H Series,” said Marcello Lotti, CEO of WSC, promoters of the TCR International Series.
