BriSCA V8 Hotstox has been leading the way with budget Stock Car Racing since 1984. From it's first ever meeting, the formula has grown from strength to strength . The formula has seen drivers go on to other formulas, returning champions and some drivers have never left, it's a proper stock car family and we honour those that have graced the formula winning some of the biggest titles in sport.
​
With thanks to former V8 Hotstox Chairman Neil Fry, we have a first of the major championships, and some interesting names which have gone on to be a massive part of the Oval Racing Community.
