HERO-ERA Cup: all rounds at a glance
HERO-ERA championship for classic regularity rallies
The HERO-ERA Cup is the championship of the British organiser HERO-ERA (Bicester) for classic regularity rallies. HERO-ERA itself describes the series as the world’s leading one of its kind and cites more than 600 competitors a year.
In 2026 ten events count, including 3 Legs of Mann, Hero Challenge 1 to 3 in York, Flying Scotsman, London to Lisbon, Summer Trial and the RAC Rally of the Tests. Each event is divided into legs, weighted by a coefficient of 1 to 1.75 depending on difficulty. Class places 1 to 8 earn 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 points, multiplied by the coefficient, and a maximum of 16 legs count.
Bonus points go to the top three overall at Red & Black and Green & Blue events (not at Lite events), plus the Test Pilot (drivers) and Clockwatchers (navigators) bonuses. Anyone who is a member (Premier or Heritage) at the time of the event can take part; points go to individuals, and changing cars and co-drivers is allowed. Prizes for 2026 include a watch for first place and vouchers of £1,000 and £500, with the presentation held at the Royal Automobile Club. The Golden Roamer Trophy runs in parallel.
