#8 Paul Rose - Championship Director of Fun Cup
10/18/22 • 64 min
In 2002 at Snetterton, Paul Rose introduced UK motorsport to the world of Fun Cup endurance racing. Consistently fielding grids with over 30 cars, this Series attracts over 160 cars for the annual Fun Cup 25 hours of Spa.
The longevity of this successful series is testament to the closeness and excitement of the racing. I speak from experience. Having worked their way through their respective training programmes, CAT entered the series in 2012 and 2013 with 3 new racers. Close racing - huge fun - very exciting, with significant seat time - we had a ball.
Motivated by our experience, I’ve asked Paul, the owner of the Fun Cup franchised series in the UK, to tell his story. If you are considering racing, or would like to experience Fun Cup first hand, listen in. For those looking to activate their racing interest, Paul is a petrolhead with a lifetime of motorsport experience and helpful advice. It’s a Fun Cup centric hour for racers and those looking to join the grid.
