History
In mid 2015, a little group of German investors contacted Volkswagen Racing, wanting to purchase 20 Volkswagen Polo formerly used in the ADAC Volkswagen Polo Cup. Volkswagen quickly refused and instead offered 20 unsold, race-ready Lupo GTIs and a stock of spare parts for a modest amount of money, which the investors agreed.
2016 saw the first season of the series, Laurent Couteau winning the championship ahead of Cecep Sugiharto and Koyomi Setou. This year was considered rather successfull with the highest moment being the Spa Superprix, where 56 cars were entered to race. Unfortunately, the race itself was red flagged after just 9 laps after too many accidents. During this season, the engineers worked a lot on the car to give it more power and more grip for 2017. It resulted in massive modifications on the chassis, suspensions, gearbox and engine. 2017 would see the "B-Spec Lupo" race for the first time.
