The championship dates back to 1977 when the first race for the 2-litre two seater Sports 2000 cars took place at Oulton Park on April 8th 1977. Like the other pair of single seater categories, the original plan was hatched out by the fertile brain of Motor Circuit Developments boss John Webb and it too has become very popular, spreading to many other countries around the world.

About me

My journey into competitive motorsport is a true testament to the power of seizing an opportunity. It began in 2006 when, despite having no prior racing experience, I entered the TV show “So You Want to Be an F1 Driver?”

The competition was fierce, drawing over 2,000 aspiring racers from all backgrounds. Through rigorous rounds testing fitness and fundamental car control, I surprised everyone—and myself—by consistently performing and progressing to the 5th round.

While I was ultimately eliminated there, it led to the breakthrough moment: Senior Judge Tim Matthews offered me a seat to race a Historic class Lola for the remainder of the 2006 season. That unexpected start launched my career.

Racing Driver!

As a child in Slough, racing on the best tracks in the UK felt like an impossible goal. I spent my younger years racing radio-controlled cars, but everything changed when I entered the TV competition “So You Want to Be an F1 Driver?”

Following the show, I fully committed to the sport. With the help of a bank loan, I purchased my first race car, a Sports2000 Tiga SC84, turning a childhood passion into a lifelong career.
