These cars can be lined up, at their choice, in group N or A configuration (on file), each of these categories being the object of a distinct classification at the end of the season.
If the list of eligible cars exceeds a hundred models, some "icons" of the time are already in the front line, the R5 GT Turbo, Peugeot 205 GTI, VW Golf GTI, Honda Civic and other Peugeot 309 GTI or Opel Kadett GSi.
