The BRCA GT12 Committee is happy to announce the GT12 National Grand Prix for 2026!

The event will take place on the 31st of January and 1st of February 2026 at Tamworth Model Car Club.

We are trying a new format for this season, rather than having several smaller events dotted around the country we have chosen to have one big event in a fairly central location to try and bring as many GT12 racers together as possible under one roof!

The GT12 National Grand Prix is open to anyone who wishes to enter, there are no restrictions on ability, age or gender. The only things you'll need to race are a car that conforms to the rules and a valid BRCA license!

This event will be using the Grand Prix format, so over the two days all drivers will get lots of track time to learn the track and refine their setup. The Saturday will start in the afternoon around 3pm, with at least one round of practise and 3 qualifying runs. On Sunday, there will be one round of practise in the morning, followed by 3 more qualifying runs and then 3 rounds of finals for all.

Qualifying will be decided using the FTQ format as usual, with the fastest overall time deciding TQ. Finals will be contested over 3 legs, with the two best scores from each driver deciding their overall finishing position. The overall winner of the A final will also be crowned national champion! There will also be a Junior champion, based on Qualifying results for drivers who hold a BRCA Junior license.

We also hope to hold a couple of non-racing competitions including a concourse to find the best painted bodyshells!

See you all soon!

Notes

Please note that pure RC4 transponders (AMB Purcy and Pro) should not be used at these events.
