<strong>SPONSORSHIP</strong> PROPOSAL<br />
Formula One<br />
stock car racing<br />
Once witnessed, never forgotten...<br />
Non-stop action<br />
A unique motorsport spectacle<br />
Full-contact racing<br />
<strong>F1</strong> stock car racing is short-oval motorsport’s premier formula,<br />
racing from March until November on shale and Tarmac<br />
quarter-mile tracks.<br />
BSCDA drivers continue to thrill the crowds across the<br />
country and overseas.
<strong>F1</strong> stock car racing<br />
Fast, colourful, spectacular<br />
FORMULA ONE stock car racing is the<br />
most powerful and spectacular shortoval<br />
motorsport racing in Europe.<br />
First raced in Britain in 1955, the cars<br />
have evolved more than 60 years later<br />
into purpose-built, unlimited-powered<br />
racing cars, using Chevrolet V8 engines,<br />
producing up to 750bhp – the same<br />
power as a <strong>F1</strong> Grand Prix car.<br />
The cars race anti-clockwise on quartermile<br />
oval circuits on two surfaces, shale<br />
and Tarmac, during a nine-month<br />
season.<br />
<strong>F1</strong> stock cars are fast, loud, colourful<br />
and spectacular to watch. With striking<br />
large aerofoils on their roofs to aid a car’s<br />
handling characteristics, <strong>F1</strong> stock cars<br />
thunder around the track at speeds of up<br />
to 100mph on a 400 metre oval, and can<br />
■ More<br />
than 200<br />
drivers are<br />
registered<br />
with the<br />
BSCDA<br />
■ Racing<br />
takes place<br />
from March to<br />
November<br />
at 14 venues<br />
across Britain<br />
and Europe<br />
exceed more than 140mph around the<br />
larger oval raceways in mainland<br />
Europe.<br />
There are two key aspects that make<br />
<strong>F1</strong> stock car racing stand out from other<br />
forms of motorsport.<br />
The racing is full-contact. The cars are<br />
built to withstand contact, with large front<br />
and rear bumpers and side rails. The<br />
bumpers are used as weapons to move<br />
cars aside, and also act as protection<br />
when the hunter becomes the hunted.<br />
The best drivers start at the back of the<br />
grid. What makes the sport an exciting<br />
spectacle is races are handicapped,<br />
using a colour-coded roof system, with<br />
the best drivers starting at the back of the<br />
grid.<br />

<strong>F1</strong> stock car racing<br />
A unique sporting experience<br />
UNIQUE to other forms of motorsport, in<br />
<strong>F1</strong> stock car racing use roof colours to<br />
designate capability and race grids are<br />
made up of representatives from each<br />
grade.<br />
White, Yellow, Blue and Red roofs are<br />
the sequence from the front of the grid to<br />
the back with the top six in the country,<br />
the Superstars, starting at the back.<br />
Slow rolling laps signal the start of each<br />
16-20-lap race and when the green flag<br />
drops, the cars transform the stadium<br />
into a supercharged, no-holds-barred<br />
gladatorial arena.<br />
It is what makes Formula One stock car<br />
racing one of the most spectacular forms<br />
of motorsport in the world.<br />
Spectator friendly. Taking place in the<br />
confines of a stadium, spectators can see<br />
■ More than<br />
40 <strong>F1</strong> stock car<br />
meetings are<br />
held during a<br />
season<br />
all the action with uninterrupted views of<br />
the track.<br />
They can also visit the pit area at anytime<br />
during a meeting, where drivers are more<br />
than happy to talk to fans and to sign<br />
autographs.<br />

The BSCDA<br />
Who we are, what we do and looking to the future<br />
Spectacular<br />
live shows<br />
Full-contact<br />
racing<br />
Who we are: Stock Car racing began in 1954<br />
at New Cross Stadium in London and due to its<br />
popularity the sport needed to become more<br />
organised.<br />
As a result the British Stock Car Drivers<br />
Association (BSCDA) was founded in<br />
February1955.<br />
The BSCDA was set up to look after the interests<br />
of the drivers, and to work effectively with<br />
promoters for the good of the sport.<br />
6<br />
The British Stock Car Drivers’ Association<br />
A perfect example was the formation of the<br />
Board of Control in 1958, a body that agreed<br />
rules and regulations to benefit everyone<br />
involved and allow the world of stock car racing<br />
to grow.<br />
What we do: Since those early years more<br />
than 100 people have served their fellow drivers<br />
by representing members of the<br />
BSCDA via the Drivers’ Committee.<br />
In 1976 the Driver’s Benevolent Fund was
Thrills and<br />
spills<br />
formed to help those having to take time<br />
away from work with racing injuries. This was<br />
registered as a Charity in 1984 and became<br />
known as the BSCDA Trust Fund.<br />
The BSCDA organise all bookings and<br />
prize-money for race meetings. The BSCDA also<br />
organise a number of events to promote the<br />
sport, including at Europe’s leading motorsport<br />
show, Autosport International, held every year<br />
in January.<br />
At the show <strong>F1</strong> stock cars are a popular and<br />
regular feature in the Live Action Arena, an hour<br />
spectacle held three times on each of<br />
two public days. <strong>F1</strong> stock cars also feature at the<br />
local events across the country.<br />
Anyone can join the BSCDA and become<br />
an Associate Member and receive all<br />
newsletters and information about the<br />
BSCDA.<br />
Looking to the future: As the sport continues to<br />
grow the BSCDA are looking to raise its profile<br />
across numerous platforms as well as financing<br />
12 BSCDA-linked events during the 40-meeting<br />
season.<br />
