The '''TC2000''' ('''''Turismo Competición 2000''''', formerly '''''Súper TC2000''''') is a [[touring car racing]] series held in Argentina since 1979.
[[Image:TC2000 2006 Santa Fe.jpg|thumb|right|300px|TC-2000 in Santa Fe.]]
The '''TC 2000''' ('''Turismo Competición 2000''') is a [[touring car racing]] series held in [[Argentina]] since [[1980]].


==Rules==
==Rules==
Engines are limited to 2000 cc and modifications are limited to reduce running costs and bring equal opportunities to every team. [[Variable valve timing]], variable intake geometry, [[anti-lock braking system]]s and [[traction control]] are forbidden.
Prior to 2012, engines of up to {{convert|2000|cc|cuin}} were allowed, with only limited modifications from standard engines. This was both to reduce running costs, and give a level playing field to every team. [[Variable valve timing]], variable intake geometry, [[anti-lock braking system]]s and [[traction control system|traction control]] are all forbidden.


From the 2012 season, [[Radical Performance Engines]] will provide {{convert|2.7|L|cuin}} RPE TCX [[V8 engine]]s (a front-wheel-drive variant of the RPX, originally found in the [[Radical SR8]]), capable of producing {{convert|430|bhp|kW}}, in place of the previous {{convert|2|L|cuin}} engines. The series was renamed to ''Súper TC2000''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.radicalperformanceengines.com/news/?loadnews=1&cb=60&l=radical-performance-engines-appointed-as-tc2000-engine-supplier|title=Radical Sportscars &#124; Racing &#124; Track Day &#124; Road and Race Cars}}</ref> Meanwhile, cars with the old regulation continue competing as a second-tier championship with the name ''TC2000'', currently with an independent calendar.
==2006 TC 2000 teams==
Works teams include:
*Ford YPF - [[Ford Focus]]
*Chevrolet Elaion - [[General Motors Astra|Chevrolet Astra]]
*Honda Petrobras - [[Honda Civic]]
*Toyota Team Argentina - [[Toyota Corolla]]
*Mitsubishi Racing - [[Mitsubishi Lancer]]
*Renault Team TC2000 - [[Renault Mégane]]


The V8 engines were finally replaced from the year 2019 by new provider, the French manufacturer [[Oreca]], these being {{convert|2.0|L|cuin}} [[Turbocharger|turbocharged]] [[Inline-four engine|4-cylinder in-line]].
There are also many private teams, which use cars such as the [[Volkswagen Polo]] and [[VW Jetta|Bora]], [[Peugeot 307]], [[General Motors Astra|Chevrolet Astra]] and [[Renault Mégane]].


In 2022, the series changed its name again. The Super TC2000 got its name back from the TC2000 and the TC2000 was renamed the TC2000 Series.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Autocosmos |date=20 February 2022 |title=Súper TC2000 cambiará su nombre y volverá a los orígenes |url=https://noticias.autocosmos.com.ar/2022/02/20/super-tc2000-cambiara-su-nombre-y-volvera-a-los-origenes |access-date=2022-04-09 |website=Autocosmos |language=es-AR}}</ref>
In the [[1980s]] cars like the [[Renault Fuego]], [[Ford Taunus]] and [[Peugeot 504]] were used.

The TC2000 (Turismo Competición 2000, formerly Súper TC2000) is a touring car racing series held in Argentina since 1979.

Rules

Prior to 2012, engines of up to 2,000 cubic centimetres (120 cu in) were allowed, with only limited modifications from standard engines. This was both to reduce running costs, and give a level playing field to every team. Variable valve timing, variable intake geometry, anti-lock braking systems and traction control are all forbidden.

From the 2012 season, Radical Performance Engines will provide 2.7 litres (160 cu in) RPE TCX V8 engines (a front-wheel-drive variant of the RPX, originally found in the Radical SR8), capable of producing 430 brake horsepower (320 kW), in place of the previous 2 litres (120 cu in) engines. The series was renamed to Súper TC2000.[1] Meanwhile, cars with the old regulation continue competing as a second-tier championship with the name TC2000, currently with an independent calendar.

The V8 engines were finally replaced from the year 2019 by new provider, the French manufacturer Oreca, these being 2.0 litres (120 cu in) turbocharged 4-cylinder in-line.

In 2022, the series changed its name again. The Super TC2000 got its name back from the TC2000 and the TC2000 was renamed the TC2000 Series.[2]
