The Dacia Logan Cup is a One-make racing lowcost series created and managed by Renault Sport. It uses Dacia Logan cars and takes place in Germany, France, Romania and Russia.
The purpose of the series is to make motorsports accessible with an as low as possible operating cost.
The Dacia Logan Cup car is based on the road-going version of the 1.6 8V 90 hp Dacia Logan (Renault Logan in Russia) with an added kit prepared by Renault Sport Technologies. [1] There are two different racing kits : circuit racing and rallying (tarmac or gravel). The kits contain safety equipment, parts designed to improve reliability and performance, and design features. The main components of the cars are those of the Dacia Logan to ensure low cost and easy procurement. [2]

The Logan Cup car can be entered in open rallies Group N or open circuit motorsport events. Renault and Dacia organize One-make racing championships in various countries where the Logan is available for sale.
The Dacia Logan Cup has been held in Romania as Cupa Dacia Logan JOE [4] in 2007. In 2008, the name was changed to Cupa Dacia Ursus and since 2009 it was known as Cupa Dacia. [5] It was managed from the beginning by Mach1sport-management and since 2010 the competition was sponsored by Policolor's "Klar Professional". Cupa Dacia is very popular, with fierce competition, as it is part of the Romanian National Rally Championship (CNR) and is affiliated to FRAS (Romanian Federation of Sport Automotive).
ADAC has been organizing the Cup in Germany since 2006 as the ADAC Dacia Logan Clubsport. [6] This championship rewards not the best driver but the best amateur team.
In France, the Coupe Logan Rallycross was organised by FFSA in 2008 [7] as a rallycross series.
In Russia, the Renault Logan Cup [8] rally series is supported by local Renault representatives - OAO Avtoframos, which manufacture Logans at a plant in Moscow. Held since 2008, Renault Logan Cup was private at first, sponsored by AGA autocosmetics. The race calendar consists of 9 races: 4 are part of the Russian Rally Championship, 4 in budget-minded Club Rally Cup, and one final race. Championship events usually attract no more than 5 Logans, as they are expensive. Club Rally evens are twice as popular, and there have been approximately 25 cars built (total) by the end of 2009.
The grand prize of the Russian Renault Logan Cup is free participation in the top winter oval racing (named trek) - Star Race by Za Rylem magazine, which is held each February.
