Classic Touring Car Racing Club: Burton Power Products Blue Oval Saloon Series

The Burton Power Blue Oval Saloon Series from the Classic Touring Car Club is back to celebrate the iconic Ford brand with the British Automobile Racing Club, as the American company enters its 122nd year in 2025.

The legendary blue oval marque has produced some of the most recognisable and most revered cars ever to hit the road and racetrack โ€“ and the BARC supported Blue Oval Saloon Series has many of the heroic cars ready to roll down the pit lane. The series boasts seven classes for four seater saloon cars manufactured by the Ford Motor Company, based on standard production shells marketed to the public before the 1st January 2011.

Everyone from Class F up to 1400cc through to Class A for cars over 3,601cc are welcome on the grid. Anglias and Cortinas, through to Escorts, Sierras and Fiestas pack the entry list, along with the odd Mustang, Mondeo or Focus adding to the variety and spectacle.

The true blue series begins at Donington Park before taking in Brands Hatch and a trip across the border to Wales for three rounds at Pembrey. A double header at Brands Hatch sees both Indy and GP layouts sprung into action, before the mid season break in July. A trip to Norfolk for two intense duals at Snetterton is followed by Silverstone, with the curtain call taking place at Brands Hatch โ€“ the closest venue to the spiritual home of Ford UK, with Dagenham in Essex just under 20 miles from the Kent race venue.

The 2025 season for the British Automobile Racing Club gets underway at Donington Park on the 22/23 March, with the Burton Power Blue Oval Saloon Series joining the opening event.

Family, friends and motorsport fans will be able to watch all the action from the BARC race weekends LIVE on our YouTube channel โ€“ with a comprehensive day of racing coverage planned. www.youtube.com/@britishautomobileracingclub โ€จ
