Classic Touring Car Racing Club: Everard Pre-66 Touring Cars

The Everard Pre-66 Touring Car series, organised by the Classic Touring Car Racing Club in association with the British Automobile Racing Club (BARC) is ready to hit the track on the 22/23 March.

The series for cars from the late fifties and swinging sixties are ready to do battle at eight rounds this season, with plenty of competition between a huge variety of cars.

Competitors have an abundance of choice when it comes to selecting a four-seater saloon marketing to the public before 1st January 1966 – allowing drivers behind the wheel and those stood watching track side to be taken back down memory lane – to the early days of the British Saloon Car Championship – the precursor to the Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship.

A whole host of machinery are ready to be rolled out of garages to relive the door-to-door action from a bygone era.

Class A for cars over 2700cc is the place for the ‘big bangers’ such as the Ford Falcon and Ford Galaxie models with homes for cars of all shapes and sizes, down to the giant killing machines such as Ford Lotus Cortina, Mini Cooper, Hillman Imp and Austin A40 models.

The Everard Pre-66 runners get their championship underway at classic touring car venues Donington Park and Brands Hatch before a popular trip to Pembrey in Wales. A double header at Brands Hatch for races around the Indy and GP layouts marks the midpoint in the season, before a championship run in of Snetterton, Silverstone and Brands Hatch providing the final event of the year.

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