It was open to two categories of sports prototypes, SR and SRL, and awarded driver and team championships in each class.
It began on 26 March 2000 and ended on 26 November 2000 after ten events were held in Europe, the United States of America, and South Africa.
For the SRL category Redman Bright and drivers Peter Owen and Mark Smithson were the respective champions.
However, after the initial announcement in 1999 Grand-Am opted instead to not include the European rounds in their championship as the majority of teams were not interested.
World Cup teams also withdrew their support, eventually leading to the two races only counting toward the SRL category championship.
