Chris Ford developed the idea along with Michael Booth, Phil Diaz, and the New Dimension Racing team.  Early seasons featured single class races, but a split between driver levels of professional and amateur was implemented.  Designed as the first step before a driver would advance to the [[International Grand Touring Championship]] and later Masters of Endurance, the series began with shorter endurance races.
