750 Motor Club
750 Motor Club is a motor racing club in the UK. It was founded in 1939 to promote the sporting use of the Austin 7. '750' refers to the near-750cc Austin 7 engine. It later led to racing and the 750 Formula where specials are raced. Famous members include Colin Chapman, Eric Broadley, Adrian Reynard, Arthur Mallock, Derek Bennett, Tony Southgate, Brian Hart, Gordon Murray, Jem Marsh, Frank Costin and Mike Pilbeam. These engineers and designers produced the first Lotus, Lola, Chevron, Speedex, Marcos, Pilbeam and other sports and racing cars between the 1940s and 1960s.
The 750MC has continued to promote competitive, low-cost racing for enthusiasts, with a range of championships for production and racing sports cars, saloons and single-seaters.
The world's oldest sports prototype formula, with all cars using the 1.1 litre Fiat FIRE engine. There are three classes:
- 750 Formula is the longest running championship in the world, beginning in 1949.
Joining the club in 2020, the Alfa Romeo Championship caters for all types of the marques cars, classified in three categories - Modified, Power Trophy and Twin Spark Cup.
Primarily a motor racing community for Service personnel and veterans, AFRC rewards consistency as well as outright pace and achieved championship status in 2017.
A championship for sports-racing cars using production motorcycle 4-stroke engines, with their standard transmissions. There are currently three classes:
A six-hour relay event where competitors race for scratch and handicap positions, open to sports cars and saloon cars. The race was first run in 1951, and was created by Holland Birkett, who was one of the founding members of the 750 Motor Club. In 2001, a twelve-hour race was also held. Currently, the event is held at the Silverstone Circuit on the full Historic GP layout.
