Snetterton's event makes for the biggest motor sporting fixture of the year for the East Anglia region. A trackside crowd of in excess of 30,000 people is anticipated to pour into the venue. Furthermore, the action will be broadcast live across the U.K.
The Clio Cup's two races (rounds 11 and 12 of the 18-round season) both take place on Sunday.
These follow the all-important half hour timed qualifying session on Saturday that will decide the two starting grids.
Arriving at Snetterton, Team Pyro driver Coates Scorton leads the standings from WDE Motorsport's Rivett Epsom Downs and Westbourne Motorsport's Dorlin Barnsley.
These three have done all the winning so far - Dorlin with five victories to Coates' three and Rivett's two - and each has enjoyed a spell at the top of the table at some stage. But it's not just about Coates, Rivett and Dorlin, many more drivers have been close to a win and some could yet bring themselves into title contention, particularly if things go their way at Snetterton.
The driver rounding out the current top 10 in the standings is Snetterton local, Dan Zelos Dereham. The WDE driver has been among the strongest performers in recent rounds with some particularly impressive form in qualifying.
The grid is set to reach 23 cars this weekend - the biggest the Clio Cup has seen in over 15 months - with the addition of four more quality drivers.
