On what proved to be a pivotal weekend north of the border; the Renault UK Clio Cup, Michelin Ginetta Junior Championship, Millers Oils Ginetta GT4 Supercup and F4 British Championship certified by FIA – powered by Ford EcoBoost all took centre stage.

Having made headlines for much of the season already, the Renault UK Clio Cup made a triumphant return to Scotland with the top two in the standings sharing the spoils.

Max Coates soaked up race-long pressure from his main title rival Jack Young in the opening encounter to record his seventh win of the 2019 campaign before Young then came out on top in race two, leading from start-to-finish.

James Hedley took another step close to be crowned champion the Michelin Ginetta Junior Championship as he netted an impressive brace of wins.

The Elite Motorsport driver proved to be in formidable form from the get-go as he powered to the top step of the podium in races one and two, strengthening his position at the summit of the standings.

Goodwood roll back the years for memorable Revival meeting

Recalling the sights, sounds and spectacle of a bygone era, the ever-popular Goodwood Revival took fans on a spirited trip down memory lane this past weekend (September 13/14/15).

As has been the case for a number of years, the British Automobile Racing Club continued in its organisational role by appointing marshals and officials, as well as ensuring the smooth-running of the meeting too.

Amidst the variety of celebrations that took place, one of which played homage to Mini, the West Sussex venue played host to a multitude of on-track thrills and spills as it brought together iconic names and machines from the world of two and four wheels.

Catering for unlimited sports prototypes up to 1966, the Whitsun Trophy saw Karun Chandhok pilot the McLaren-Chevrolet M1A to victory whilst Roger Wills was the winner of the Sussex Trophy.

The St. Mary’s Trophy, which is billed as one of the headline acts of the event, served up another mesmerising two races of vintage saloon car action with the pairing of Mike Jordan and Nicolas Minassian charging to the top of the rostrum in their Austin A40.

Harry Dark, Sam Wilson and Gareth Barnett meanwhile were the winners of the Settrington Cup, Richmond & Gordon Trophies and Goodwood Trophy respectively.

There was plenty of edge-of-the-seat entertainment from the Royal Automobile Club TT Celebration, which is open to cockpit GT cars that race in the spirit of the RAC TT from 1960-1964.

At the wheel of their AC Cobra, Christopher Wilson and Andre Lotterer reigned supreme to claim outright honours after more than an hour of racing.

Teamwork was also required in the Kinara Trophy, which was another one-hour, two-driver race for closed-cockpit GT cars of three litres and over of a type that raced up until 1963.

Gary Pearson headed a Ferrari 250 GTO entry to triumph and he would enjoy further success as he also ran out as the winner of the Freddie March Memorial Trophy race too.

Robert Barrie, Andy Middlehurst, Peter De La Roche, Martin Overington, and the duo of Lee and Johnston rounded out the list of winners during what proved to be an unforgettable weekend.

BTCC title race heads north of the border to Knockhill

The Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship heads north of the border to Knockhill this weekend (September 14/15) for Rounds 22, 23 & 24 of the 2019 season and the battle for supremacy at the top of the standings is set to intensify even further.

As the crescendo for the UK’s premier race series rapidly approaches, the annual pilgrimage to Scotland is set to be a pivotal one on the road to deciding who will lift the most coveted prize in British motorsport at Brands Hatch next month.

With more than 200 points still up for grabs, the rollercoaster nature of the Fife venue traditionally lends itself to dramatic touring car thrills and spills; and this year should be no different.

Reigning champion Colin Turkington finds himself in the pound seat heading to Knockhill, holding a 30-point advantage over BMW stablemate Andrew Jordan. Tallying five victories apiece so far this season, the rear-wheel drive duo have been in fine form all year.

Bidding to draw level with Andy Rouse’s record for four BTCC titles, Turkington holds the best hand as it stands but the relentless Jordan will surely throw everything behind his pursuit of a second title, starting with this weekend’s trio of races.

Honda Yuasa Racing’s Dan Cammish is very much the ‘form man’ and is riding a wave of momentum after scoring his first win of the season at Thruxton last time out. Sitting just four points behind Jordan, Cammish is firmly in the mix and on the hunt for more silverware.

Down the years the Civic Type R has proven to be a potent weapon around the undulating 1.27-mile circuit and more success could be on the way with both Josh Cook and home hero Rory Butcher on the fringes of the title fight, rounding out the top five in the standings.

One man to watch over the course of the weekend will likely be former champion Ashley Sutton. The Adrian Flux Subaru Racing driver was one of the stars of the show at the corresponding round last year and is chasing a first win of the season.

Tom Ingram has scored two wins and continues to make improvements in his Toyota Corolla whilst Jason Plato appears to have his mojo back at Power Maxed Racing. Knockhill was the scene of Plato’s last victory two years ago and the double champion will undoubtedly be keen to return to the top step of the podium.

The likes of Tom Oliphant, Adam Morgan, Jake Hill, Stephen Jelley, Senna Proctor, Rob Collard, Tom Chilton and Scotsman Aiden Moffat are just a handful of other drivers to keep a keen eye on too as they aim to make their mark at he front of the field.

Cobra Sport AmD AutoAid/RCIB Insurance’s Sam Tordoff will not participate in this weekend’s race meeting due to family circumstances. Instead, former Clio Cup champion Mike Bushell will return to the grid to fill in for the Yorkshireman.

With a bumper crowd expected and the circuit being a favourite amongst the drivers, Knockhill is set to deliver another memorable instalment of BTCC action.

Battle for supremacy continues as TOCA support package descends on Knockhill

It won’t just be the Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship that will take centre stage at Knockhill this weekend (September 14/15) as four categories from the much-loved TOCA support bill will also be in action.

Travelling north of the border for the latest chapter in their 2019 campaigns, any number of twists and turns could yet take place as each championship heads towards its season finale – which takes place at Brands Hatch next month.

Making its first appearance in Scotland since 2015, the Renault UK Clio Cup heads to Knockhill with it all to play. In recent rounds the title battle between Max Coates and Jack Young has reached boiling point – so expect more fireworks at the front of the field as the crescendo approaches.

Just six points split Coates and Young with six races remaining however both will need to be wary as Jamie Bond is within touching distance, despite missing the opening event of the year.

Brett Lidsey, Ben Colburn, Ethan Hammerton and Tyler Lidsey are likely to make their mark during the weekend too so it is advised not to miss a single second of Clio Cup action.

The Millers Oils Ginetta GT4 Supercup returns to Knockhill for the first time in three years with Will Burns holding the initiative in the points. The Rob Boston Racing enjoyed a stellar weekend at Thruxton last time out to swing the title pendulum his way however he will need to continue his recent run of form if he wants to stay at the summit.

Harry King will be keen to bounce back from his recent travails whilst the pairing of Tom Hibbert and Reece Somerfield will be fully focused on remaining in title contention too. Meanwhile, Fin Green and Carlito Miracco bagged podiums at Thruxton and both will have their sights set on further progress.

Down the years the Michelin Ginetta Junior Championship has become renowned for serving up fantastic racing and with three races scheduled to take place, more of the same can be expected.

Will Martin and Zak O’Sullivan delivered a highly entertaining battle at Thruxton and in-doing so, closed the gap to series leader James Hedley. In what is a crucial point in the series, both Martin and O’Sullivan will need to have another high-scoring weekend if they are to make further gains on Hedley who has finished on the podium in 14 of the 17 races this year.

Beyond the top three; Casper Stevenson, James Taylor and Ethan Hawkey will all undoubtedly be in the mix for outright honours too as the teenage racers deliver more exhilarating thrills and spills.

Capping off the weekend’s action at Knockhill will be a trio of races from the F4 British Championship certified by FIA – powered by Ford EcoBoost, where the likes of Zane Maloney, Sebastian Alvarez and Carter Williams will renew their rivalries.

The Earl of March Trophy will see 500cc Formula 3 cars from the 1950s will go head-to-head whilst the Brooklands Trophy will be a celebration of Bentley, with pre-war vehicles set to duke it out for victory.

As always, a host of top-name drivers will be in action during the event with former IndyCar champion Dario Franchitti one of the headline announcements to be confirmed leading into the event.

Jeff Gordon, Dani Pedrosa, Tom Kristensen, Jochen Mass and David Brabham, amongst many more, have also been announced too.

Miles Rudman, series leader, bagged a pair of wins to strengthen his position at the summit however two wins for Sean Smith moved him into second and onto the heels of Rudman.

Wins also fell the way of Jack Parker and Will Gibson too, further underlining the ultra-competitive nature of hugely popular category.

Spoils were shared in the Pickup Truck Racing Championship as David O’Regan and Dale Gent took a win apiece, bolstering their title aspirations at the same time.

O’Regan rocketed from fifth to win the opening encounter ahead of Reece Jones and George Turickki before Gent came to the fore in race two, producing a commanding drive to notch his latest victory of the campaign.

The BARC Super Silhouette Championship produced a show-stopping trio of races around the Norfolk venue, with three different drivers standing on top of the podium.

Chris Brockenhurst clinched his second win of the year in race before Steve Burrows achieved a long-overdue first win in race two. Malcolm Blackman, the driver to beat for a majority of the season, moved closer to the title in race three with another win.

Action-packed Anglesey race day sets pulses racing

The Caterham Graduates Championship and Carbon8 Hyundai Coupe Cup continued to head towards the climax of their respective 2019 campaigns this past Saturday (September 7) as the British Automobile Racing Club starred at Anglesey.

On what proved to be a scintillating day of on-track action around the picturesque Welsh venue, an exciting six-race schedule kept fans captivated from start-to-finish – with both categories taking centre stage.

Samuel Wilson extended his advantage in the Caterham Graduates Championship SigMax class as he powered his way to a brace of victories.

Starting from pole position in both encounters, Wilson converted his front row start into a pair of commanding performances – leading from lights-to-flag with relative ease whilst Stephen Clark and Jamie Winrow followed behind.

Bringing a close to the day’s action was two races from the Carbon8 Hyundai Coupe Cup where Wayne Rockett and Mark Dicken emerged as the leading lights.

BARC speeds into Snetterton for blockbuster weekend

The British Automobile Racing Club will speed its way into Snetterton this weekend (September 7/8) for what is set to be a spectacular two days of track action, headlined by the thunderous MV Commercial BTRA Championship.

Providing the latest stop on the calendar for no less than five different championships, the unique challengers of the 2.99-mile East Anglia venue will likely provide a whole host of defining moments as drivers battle for title glory.

The MV Commercial BTRA Championship heads towards the business end of the season with it all to play for in both Divisions 1 & 2 and a total of seven races that will have fans perched on the edge of their seats.

Three-time reigning champion Ryan Smith remains the man to beat in Division 1 as he continues his pursuit of a fourth crown. Winning a majority of the races this year, Smith will likely be the man to beat however David Jenkins, Mark Taylor and John Newell, amongst others, are all set to be in contention for overall honours.

From the heavyweight behemoths of the BTRA to the pocket rockets of the Legends Cars National Championship with MRF Tyres, which will undoubtedly serve up a feast of entertainment across both days.

Renowned for producing close-quarter competition, the Legends contingent is set to continue its ultra-competitive trend with another blockbuster weekend. Miles Rudman finds himself in the pound seat currently at the summit of the standings however his lead is a slender one.

Multiple champion John Mickel, Sean Smith, Sy Harraway and Marcus Pett are all within striking distance and shouldn’t be discounted from contention either.

The Pickup Truck Racing Championship has hit new heights this year and Snetterton provides the latest chapter of what has been an enthralling season to-date.

As the series begins to wind towards what should be a frenetic season-finale, the likes of Michael Smith, Dale Gent, George Turiccki and Mark Wallis will be worth keeping a keen eye on.

Malcolm Blackman’s reign in the BARC Super Silhouette Championship has been nothing short of superlative so far and the Vauxhall Tigra ace will be hard to deny from continuing his recent run at Snetterton.

Winning all but one of the races run in the spaceframe series so far this year, Blackman has been a juggernaut of sorts and the likes of Chris Brockenhurst will be keen to stop him from tallying a further two wins this weekend.

Rounding out the weekend’s action from Norfolk will be a brace of races from the Kumho BMW Championship, which caters for all models of the popular German manufacturer.

Running under a multi-class format, the Kumho BMW Championship has proven to be a smash-hit this year with Garrie Whittaker as the benchmark to look upon, winning every single race as it stands and looking peerless in his BMW E36 M3.
