Using rFactor 2 and the official BTCC cars and liveries, each contest will see a five-minute qualifying session followed by a 10-minute race across a series of British circuits. Live commentary is provided by the inimitable Alan Hyde.

The races will see the likes of Tom Ingram, Dan Cammish, Ronan Pearson and three-time champion Ash Sutton racing alongside each other on the simulators.

On Thursday, Tom Ingram set the pace in the earlier race, while later in the day NAPA Racing teammates Sutton and Dan Rowbottom enjoyed a ‘lively’ battle.

Visitors are also able to try the same simulator set-ups, with BTCC race tickets up for grabs for those who set the quickest times across the weekend. The BTCC drivers will be competing at 2 pm and 4 pm each day, between 13th-16th July 2023.
