What is "shortcar"

Shortcar is a type of car racing developed in Norway. To keep cost under control, and make the competition depend on the driver’s competence and less on the equipment, the cars are standardised, all built from exactly the same frame, supplied in kit form. The wheels, suspension, steering, fuel tank and brakes are standard, supplied by a single source.

The first prototype was made in year 2000. The car is built for competing on tarmac tracks, rallycross tracks, hill climbs and ice racing.
