The Team

Mostly family run, the team were first involved in motorsport in 1987, when driver Stuart, his brother Derek, and now SL Motorsport AV technician Mark Lewis participated in track days. Their car at the time was a Mark I Ford Escort. A bad crash at Goodwood with Derek at the wheel led to the car being written off. This didn't stop the team, and they were soon back on track after building a BMW 323 E21 in 1988. This was then the start of the team's attachment to BMWs. In 1989, Stuart joined the Kumho BMW Championship, where he remains today, as one of the championship's longest serving drivers.
