The early-bird full season entry is now open! You can enter using this form for all the races and save a lot of money versus entering each race individually. Season entry cost also includes the 90 minute enduro race at Pembrey.
Following the announcement that the Classic 2cv Racing Club will be moving to BRSCC from 2026 and beyond, the calendar for the 2026 season can be found below.
This weekend sees the 2CVPARTS.COM 2cv Racing championship head to Snetterton in Norfolk for the 34th running of the 24 hour race!
A much-loved event on the UK national motorsport calendar each year, the popular series has produced a feast of entertainment throughout the season and that is only set to continue around the 200 layout of the venue.
Bringing in entrants from across the UK and mainland Europe, a bumper grid is expected to line-up and battle it out around the Norfolk circuit for outright honours.

Classic 2CV Champion Kris Tovey started his title defence in the best possible was, with a comfortable win at Cadwell Park.
Nick Crispin was on pole with Tovey alongside for a very wet race one.
It was Crispin who snatched the early lead, from Tovey, Sandro Proietti, Brian Heerey, Matthew Hollis and Martin Riman, after Bull had spun out of second at Charlies.
“I got a good start, but my car didn’t like the conditions,” said Crispin. “I was flying, just behind Nick and then got tapped on the rear corner. It sent me into a tank slapper and I kissed the barrier, before restarting last,” Bull added.
Tovey was soon pressing Crispin for the lead. “I had checked out where I thought I was strongest on the first lap, so got a good run out Mansfield on lap two and went inside at the Mountain to get the lead, “Tovey explained.
Heerey and Hollis were having a great duel for fourth, which began to bring them closer to Proietti and Crispin. On lap four it was Heerey leading the quartet, as Tovey’s lead increased.
“I was locked together with Nick on the straight and got past into Park, but then went wide just trying to stay on,” said Heerey.
“Brian and Matt both got me, as I was losing so much time through Charlies, searching for grip, then they had me on the straight into Park,” Crispin added.
So by the end of lap five it was Tovey, from Heerey, Hollis, Crispin and Julie Walford, with Proietti down to sixth.
“I had been chasing Nick for second and went straight on at the Hairpin, then got Brian and went straight on again. I had braked too late for Mansfield, then rejoined in neutral and got hit up the rear by Martin Riman,” Proietti explained.
“I just made sure I maintained a safe distance, as I could see them fighting behind,” said Tovey, whose KT Motorsport car took the flag 10.6 secs clear of Heerey for his win.
The battle for third had allowed Heerey to consolidate second too, but third place went down to the wire.
“I was in fourth behind Matt Hollis, but he went wide at the Hairpin on the last lap. I avoided him, but he bounced back and crossed my path and I couldn’t avoid him a second time,” Crispin explained, as he recovered to complete the podium.
With Hollis out, Bull completed a superb recovery by claiming fourth on the last lap. “I just started driving through the field, picking them off and got fastest lap. The car was just great in the wet,” he said.
Proietti finally came home fifth, with Simon Turner completing the top six, after he took Riman on the last lap.
While Riman retained seventh, Ethan Sparrow, Chris Yates and Roy Eastwood rounded off the top 10, after Julie Walford had joined Hollis and Nicholas Home in retirement.
Andi Donaldson and Seb Jones-White were next home, with Giles Owen, Martin Arrowsmith-Brown, Chris Hall, Colin Etchells, Laurence Broadhurst and Howard Wright completing the finishers, all fairly spread out.
The second race finally took place at the end of the day, but after just three laps it was red flagged and restarted. “I was leading when it was stopped, it was great,” said Bull.
“I was second at the end of lap one, Sandro went for me at Hall Bends but I caught up again, then lost it at Barn, and broke the steering rack bringing out the red flags,” Heerey explained.
“I got an early break with Nick and Bully and was pushing for the lead until it was stopped when Brian went off,” added Proietti.
“I had been swapping between second and fourth and was right behind Brian when he crashed, the second car to crash in front of me,” Crispin started.
The grid was a bit chaotic for the restart, with added confusion of how many laps the restart would be.
“I got a good start again and led for a while,” said Proietti. But both and Crispin were in the fight too, but after just five laps, the chequered flag was readied, but the order far from settled.
“Crispin was chasing Proietti on the last lap and so I got a double car tow from third down the Straight and led into Park,” said Bull.
“I was side by side with Alex Cockhill for third through the Gooseneck, following Bull and Proietti for the lead,” Crispin added.
Proietti still hadn’t given up however on snatching back his lost lead. “Bully got me on the inside at Park, but I had more speed onto the Mountain. I had just nosed ahead but offline and ran off onto the grass, “he explained.
So it was a maiden victory for Bull, with Crispin and debutant Cockhill completing the podium, as Proietti recovered to retain fourth.
George Broadhurst had managed to consolidate fifth, with Oswin completing the top six, with Luca Proietti, Donaldson and Turner following.
It’s just three weeks before the Championship heads North again, for a double-header at Croft on May 18/19th.
The new season is here, and it’s time to check your race kit, harnesses and fire extinguisher is still in date and serviceable!
In particular, Motorsport UK have retired the Snell 2010 standard for helmets, so make sure yours is still valid for competition.
This handy guide (written for the Classic Sports Car Club by scrutineer Tony Harman) will help decipher any confusion around the difference between helmet standards and FHR standards:

Preparations are well underway for another exciting season for the Classic 2CV Racing Club.
Early bird entries have now closed and it looks like we are in for some close competitive racing once again with more than 30 drivers vying for the top spot!
Will Kris Tovey be able to defend his 2023 title or will Nick Crispin or Luca Proietti, last year’s runners up, be able to steal his crown? We already know that there will be some newly built cars on the grid but there will also have been some teams burning the midnight oil to ensure their cars are ready for the first two races at Cadwell on 27th and 28th April 2024.
If you still wish to enter there are details on the website of a further whole season discount before 31st March or the pricing for individual races.
With the recent final negotiations of venues and timings we are now delighted to confirm to you the details for the 2024 Classic 2CV Racing Sprint Season.
For 2024, we will be visiting:
Cadwell Park 27th – 28th April 2024
Croft 18th – 19th May 2024
Lydden Hill 23rd June 2024
Oulton Park 12th October 2024
All venues will be double headers with qualifying sessions being separate or sequential (one after the other), as determined by the track.
We look forward to increased grids as we cover the country returning to some of our most popular tracks as well as one we have not visited for quite some time.
We are continuing to work hard with Lydden Hill management to encourage a ‘festival atmosphere’ to the weekend and are exploring options of inviting other likeminded Clubs to the weekend, with the determination to add extra value to the event.
As explained at the AGM, we are now required to make earlier staged payments to BARC to secure the race time for the season. To manage this responsibly we require payment for the race season from our competitors earlier than in previous years.
To ensure we offer the best value to the competitors who are helping us the most, we have agreed the following pricing:
Race Entry Paid In Full by February 29th 2024 – Entry for 8 Races: £2,000
Late Entry Paid In Full by March 31st 2024 – Entry for 8 Races: £2,200
Any Race Entries after 31st March 2024 – Entry at £350 each Race (up until 2 weeks before the race)
This means for those entering the season and paying in full before 29th February the 2024 Sprint Season will be cheaper than 2023!
Payment details and entry forms will shortly go live on the website, when making any payment we kindly ask you to email your details, including name, BARC Number and Licence Number to avoid confusion, to [email protected]. If your company, sponsor or a relative is making the payment, your details are vital to ensure payment is allocated to you before the deadlines to secure these prices.
To help further, the Club will accept part payments for entries to help the cash flow of both the entry and the Club, but only on the basis of the Paid In Full dates being met and details being correct supplied as above. BACS payments can be made to:
The Classic 2cv Racing Club Ltd (Metro Bank)
Sort code: 23-05-80
Account number: 22263174
The 24 hour race will take place on 23rd-25th August and details of the cost of this will follow shortly. We face the same payment pressures as the Sprint Season and unfortunately some costs have increased, but the Board are working constantly to reduce the impact of these changes, so the 2024 24hr race remains by far the best value and friendliest 24 hour race in the UK.
