Showdown by British Touring Car Championship top guns
11 Jul 2015|2,076 views
This CarFest will be the first time the tin-top legends from the popular British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) have featured at the fun-fuelled family festivals hosted by Chris Evans.
No fewer than ten superfast stars and cars from the 2015 BTCC grid will be renewing their rivalries during four special high-speed demonstrations being staged over the action-packed three-day jamboree at Oulton Park, Cheshire. The entry is topped by three former BTCC champions - Matt Neal, Gordon Shedden and Jason Plato - and includes two other proven winners: Adam Morgan and Rob Austin.
"It's going to be great fun," confirmed Plato, who won twice when the BTCC headlined at Oulton Park last month. Indeed, the 47-year old is the series' most successful racer - having amassed an unparalleled tally of 92 wins. Plato is also a friend of Evans', having appeared in the recent TGI Friday show as 'The Stink' in a homage to Top Gear's tame racing driver 'The Stig'.
The eagerly awaited BTCC debut will be a major new highlight during a massive track show running daily at CarFest North. Other notable attractions will include Evans' own 'dirty dozen' collection, fiery dragsters, sideways rally rockets plus ear-piercing F1 cars from past eras.
