BTC Racing

BTC Racing

BTC Racing is a UK auto racing team run by Bert Taylor. They ran 2 Lexus IS 200 cars for Chris Stockton and Darren Dowling in the latter two rounds of the 2006 British Touring Car Championship season in preparation for a fuller campaign the following season. They retained Stockton for 2007 but signed Nick Leason as their second driver, although he ultimately only contested the first 3 rounds. For 2008, Stockton was joined initially by truck racing champion Stuart Oliver. They replaced the Lexus cars with ex-Motorbase SEATs after two rounds, but had little success. The team missed round 6 at Snetterton after reported financial problems. Gareth Howell has made two appearances in place of Oliver.
