Ginetta have today announced a £100,000 prize fund in an exciting ‘pounds for points’ scheme for the top 10 G55 finishers in each championship race.
Drivers will be rewarded with £10 per point, which will be paid out at the end of the season, with double prize money up for grabs during the Knockhill and Croft rounds.
Ginetta GT Supercup Championship Coordinator, Max Gregory said of this innovative prize; “This year’s prize fund will offer each competitor the chance to win something whilst still providing a substantial overall amount for the overall championship winner. The £100,000 prize pot is sure to give many teams the chance to recoup some of their costs during what is undoubtedly a difficult financial time for many involved in the sport.”
The overall G55 championship winner will also receive an additional £5,000 on top of his existing prize fund whilst the G50 champion can look forward to the use of a Ginetta G55 for the 2013 season.
Last year’s inaugural Ginetta GT Supercup saw eventual title winner Adam Morgan secured a funded prize drive in the BTCC for 2012 following a fierce final round battle, and this year’s intake will undoubtedly be just as competitive.
