Looking to try some Motorsport?  

 

Downton Motor Club is synonymous with the name ‘Mini’ and for 2024 we have special classes in our Speed Championships for legal R50 and R53 BMW Minis (Class 4 and 4A).  As we are running in a ‘road legal’ format there are no need for fire extinguishers, cut off switches, roll cages or full harnesses.  

 

We have Downton Classes at 30+ events throughout the year - starting in March and going right through until the end of October.   The ‘Speed’ calendar includes Sprints at famous circuits like Goodwood, Pembrey, Llandow and spectacular hillclimbs at venues like Wiscombe Park, Shelsley Walsh and Prescott - something for everyone.
