Car 304

A shopping trolley,
weaponised.

Every C1 on the grid starts life as someone's runabout. Ours is a 2008 Citroën C1, mid-transformation into an endurance race car: cage in, interior out, and a wrap that needs sunglasses.

Why a C1

Everyone's equal.
Nobody's safe.

  • Sealed, near-stock engines — you can't buy speed, you have to drive it.
  • Control suspension, brakes and tyres — set-up craft over chequebook.
  • Full safety build — welded cage, race seat, harness, fuel safety, fire system.
  • Endurance formats — 3 hours to 24, with mandatory pit stops and driver swaps.
  • Enormous grids — the Silverstone 24h has run nearly 100 C1s at once.

Wrap & shakedown

The telemagenta moment — then a test day to find out what we've built, before Snetterton in September.

The livery

Telemagenta. Deliberately.

In a 40-car pack, three hours in, commentators talk about the car they can name at a glance. Pop-art panels, halftone bursts, and a colour nobody else would dare. Sponsor logos get the same treatment — loud, legible, everywhere the cameras look.
