Group
C cars are basically closed cockpit race cars developed to compete in the
'Group C World Endurance Championship' (World Sportscar Championship) and
the American 'IMSA Camel GTP' series in the 1980's and early 1990's.
The class attracted factory backed entries from a number of large auto manufacturers including Porsche, Aston Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan and Jaguar, aswell as entrants from pure race car producers such as Spice and Tiga.

Today,
these cars compete in a historic championship of around six meetings per season
at a variety of circuits around Europe. Even though many of the cars are extremely
valuable and rare, it doesn't affect the fierce competition out on track!
