Nissan Sentra Cup REVEAL + Q&A! - YouTube

There have been spec series in Canadian racing for decades. I used to watch the Honda-Michelin series and the Players GM series years ago at Mosport. This should be every bit as entertaining.

In reply to DeadSkunk (Warren) :

I was really excited to open this expecting a spec class for the old Spec-V's that are so cheap, slightly disappointed with this.

The Nissan Micra cup is massively fun to watch. I watched a few races a couple years ago and those guys just go balls out all the time, in the grass, banging around and straight nose dives into corners.

I think they need to do a Mitsubishi Mirage cup series. Cheap, slow and plentiful. Could make for great TV(or youtube where i watch most of my stuff).

This is to replace the Micra Cup because Nissan stopped selling the Micra this year. 

This should be another very popular series.

I followed the Micra Cup and I welcome this. This should be interesting.

A very english friend runs in the very french run micra cup series.

 

 For sure its a great platform BUT if your not french expect the organisors to,magically delete your top 3 quali results,give penalties for contact despite onboard video proving you didn't do it,and even have the organisor going to multiple teams asking for them to lodge a formal complaint agains't the english guy at the last race of the yr.

 All to ensure the podiums and final points tallies promote the french to the top of the heap.

 

 Its promoted as a Canadian spec series,in reality its very much a quebec series.

That's really unfortunate to hear. I heard rumors of things like this happening but I guess it's confirmed here.
