YTCC - Youngtimer Touring Car Challenge

The Youngtimer Touring Car Challenge (YTCC) is a European touring car racing series that features production-based touring cars primarily from the 1980s and 1990s. The series focuses on vehicles that are considered 'youngtimers,' which are classic cars that have not yet reached full historic status but are no longer current models. The championship provides a platform for amateur and semi-professional drivers to compete in a competitive yet accessible environment, emphasizing close racing and the preservation of older touring car models. Events are typically held on well-known European circuits, with a race calendar that spans multiple countries. The YTCC promotes motorsport heritage by showcasing a variety of touring cars from different manufacturers, maintaining a balance between performance and historical authenticity. The series is organized with a focus on fair competition, technical regulations that preserve the original character of the cars, and an engaging racing format that appeals to fans of classic touring car racing.
