Viktor was one of the most capable and titled racing drivers in the Soviet Union and the Russian Federation from the 1980s to the early 2010s. He is the only Soviet pilot who managed to win the main championship of the socialist bloc countries in circuit racing in the formula class twice – the Friendship Cup of Socialist Countries (FCSC), in 1988 and 1989. He also was second in 1990 and third in 1987. His statistics in the Сup include 26 races from 1984 to 1990 and 8 wins.
Kozankov also won premier USSR Championship three times – in Formula Vostok in 1985 and 1987 and in Formula Mondial in 1989. In 1990s he continued his victory circle in Russian formulae championships winning Russian Formula 1600 in 1993 and 1995 and Russian Formula 3 in 1996 and 1998. After his single-seater career Kozankov successfully moved to national touring cars when he won Russian Touring Car Cup four times in different classes in 2008-2011.
His gray-blue Estonia 21 No. 68 is one of the most iconic USSR racing cars which appeared many times on the pages and covers of Soviet automobile magazines. Here this car is modeled from 1986 season. That year Kozankov took his first victory in FCSC winning the race in Resita, Romania. He finished 6th in the final drivers’ standings of the 1986 Peace and Friendship Cup season. He also became that season vice-champion of the USSR Formula Vostok Championship behind Toomas Napa.
