The Bilstein Caterham Roadsport Championship is the next step on the Caterham ladder for those drivers and cars that have previously competed in the Caterham Academy.

Enabling them to compete alongside many of the same faces and machines that they battled against the previous year, the Roadsport Championship is the ultimate proving ground for those wanting to further develop their skills behind the wheel.

The road-legal Roadsport race car is a simple progression of the 125bhp Ford Sigma powered Academy car; its performance significantly enhanced by the addition of a rear anti-roll bar and Avon ZZS road legal track tyres – which have been developed jointly by Avon Tyres and Caterham – providing more grip enabling greater corner speeds over the Academy category machines.

The Roadsport championship provides a slightly quicker car but for the relative novices, gives a sense of familiarity.
