This year T4 Nations Cup grew to 180 drivers from 28 countries. Likee last year, the classes included T4 Mini, T4 Junior, T4 Senior, and T4 Senior 165, plus a Masters category run as part of the T4 Senior 165 category. The event was organized by Tillotson Racing and serviced by RGMMC under the Spanish Real Federación Español de Autovolismo (RFEDA) permit. Motorsport Ireland provided technical officials to keep tight control of the material for the race.
This year’s Nations Cup was sponsored by Maxxis Tyres who provided enormous support for the event. It also featured Marline’s Premium 4 Temps fuel. Premium 4 Temps is a highly refined alkylate gasoline with near zero aromatic hydrocarbons (0.4%) and benzene (0.01%), making it cleaner burning and safer for both the users and the environment compared to standard fuels.
The racing kicked off with practice sessions on Friday and continued under spectacular weather conditions with qualifying heats on Saturday and the Super Heats and Final on Sunday. The Valencia Kartodromo is a fast, 1.495 km track with long straightaways, two chicanes and several passing opportunities. With those perfect conditions, the crowds on Sunday witnessed four finals with multiple lead changes and podium challenges right up to the last lap.
