750 Motor Club

Series and Championships

The 750 Motor Club runs the oldest sports prototype formula globally, where every car is powered by a 1.1-litre Fiat FIRE engine. This formula is split into three classes. Class A is open to all competitors. Class B is for drivers who have not placed on the podium, finished in the top six of Class A, or won the Class B title within the last five years. Class C is reserved for teams entered by colleges. Known as the 750 Formula, it is the world’s longest-running championship, first held in 1949.

In 2020, the club added the Alfa Romeo Championship, which covers all types of Alfa Romeo cars across three categories: Modified, Power Trophy, and Twin Spark Cup. The AFRC, primarily a motor racing community for service personnel and veterans, rewards both consistency and outright speed, and it gained championship status in 2017.

Another club championship is for sports-racing cars that use production motorcycle four-stroke engines with their standard transmissions. It has three classes. Class A is for cars with tuned motorbike engines up to 1500cc, with weight limits varying by capacity. Class B is for cars with production motorbike engines up to 1500cc, also with weight limits based on capacity. Class C is for cars with motorbike engines up to 1100cc.

The club also organises a six-hour relay event where competitors race for both scratch and handicap positions, open to sports cars and saloon cars. This race was first run in 1951 and was created by Holland Birkett, a founding member of the 750 Motor Club. A twelve-hour race was also held in 2001. The event now takes place at Silverstone Circuit on the full Historic GP layout. Recent scratch winners include Raw Motorsport in 2022 and 2020, RJ Motorsport with Daytona in 2021, Breakell Racing Heroes in 2019, Cupra Racing in 2018, Dobbers in 2017, We Don't Like Second in 2016, Inspires in 2015, The Winning Radicals in 2014, The Third Radicals in 2013, Team O'BR in 2012, and IVOLT/Radical in 2011.
