It’s race week babyyyyy!!
We’re super excited for our return to Oulton Park, Matt’s favourite circuit, and this year the stakes are even higher, with the battle of the Harvey’s 😂
The legendary Tim Harvey will donning his gloves and helmet to battle out with the rest of the MGOC Championship grid, it’s going to be incredible to battle it out with him
Who’s coming out on top? 😂
The Harvey and the Harvey: Oulton Drift
In a remarkable set of circumstances, BTCC Legend, Tim Harvey (not related to Matt), is donning his helmet and gloves for Rounds 5 & 6 of the MGOC Championship!
It will be an interesting match up against the grid of MGs, to see who can compete, or even beat, the former British Touring Car Champion!
Tim will be racing in a Darren Leonard prepared MG ZR 170, that last saw action at Donington earlier in the season!
Do we reckon Matt will beat Tim? Let’s not forget Matt is a pro at Oulton, with it being his favourite circuit to race at! Do with that information what you will 😉

A fantastic launch had Matt 2nd by the first corner, but as the spray got harder to see, a cautious approach saw Matt drop down a couple of places by the end of the first lap!
He was still involved in the fight for the front, but settled for 6th towards the end, to complete our first full weekend of the season!
Thanks for all your love and support this weekend, we wouldn’t have got here without it all after a disastrous Donington Park! Next up is Oulton Park in May, see you then!
First race of the weekend was Round 3 of the championship, which saw the leading pack engaged in a dog fight for the lead! Matt got himself into a little pickle while holding third place, when he went flying over the grass through one of the infamous Hall Bends! He came out the other side unscathed and managed to finish where he started back in 4th!
Next up is Round 4!
Next up, Cadwell Park!
We last visited in 2023, but with the car all fixed after Donington, we're ready to snatch those first points of 2026! The speed was promising, and with some fresh bonnet pins, we're feeling strong 💪💪
