The Britcar 24hrs - the only 24hr race for GT and Saloon cars in the UK, which is now firmly placed in the British motorsport calendar as the race to attend, as a spectator or competitor. With growing grid numbers from all around Europe, and with top International teams competing, the Britcar 24hrs at Silverstone is the place to be, racing twice around the clock on the circuit lauded as the 'Home of British Motorsport', and the British Grand Prix. Going into its sixth year (it was cut to a recession-determined six hours in 2009), the event is growing each year at an astonishing rate.
In the short time it has been established, the race has attracted manufacturer-backed initiatives, to launch new models, or to celebrate existing marques, and each year top drivers from World Touring Cars, British Touring Cars, and International GT racing grace our entry list. No racing cv is complete without having competed in this magnificent race.
For the public, we have generous pre-race ticket offers which always generates massive spectator interest, and a splendid trackside camping facility. Added to that, there are off-track activities, with something to keep everybody occupied over the weekend; a funfair, air display, trade malls and kids competitions.
For race fans, car-clubs, families, or a weekend away with like-minded friends, the Britcar 24hrs at Silverstone is the place to be.
