2010 Legends Cars Championship - Round 1, Oulton Park 27th March 2010Well the eagerly awaited start to the 2010 championship is finally here, Oulton Park in Cheshire played host for the first round of The 2010 Legends Cars Championship. With a full grid of 30 cars which included no less than 10 rookies, a difficult task lay ahead both #11 Simon and #12 Stephen. No Rest Until Oulton Park If you thought that the team would be putting there feet up, when they are not racing, you are in for a surprise. Two Drivers In 2009 Legends Cars World Points Series Top 10 The Handy Motorsport drivers Stephen Treherne & Simon Belcher rounded of a fine season when they finished in the very creditable positions of 7th & 9th respectively in the 2009 Legends Cars World Points Series, despite neither driver racing in the final world championship event in Las Vegas, USA. Have You Ever Wondered What A Handy Motorsport Racing Driver Does In The Winter ? Handy Motorsport driver and 2009 Legends Cars Championship runner up Stephen Treherne has embarked on the London to Cameroon rally in aid of charity, his father John Treherne has spent the last 2 months preparing the VW Beetle for the rally at Handy Motorsports Daventry based bodyshop.
2009 Legends Cars Championship - Rounds 14 & 15, Brands Hatch in Kent played host for the final 2 rounds of The 2009 Legends Cars Championship, The Swindon based Kärcher Handy Motorsport Team along with drivers Stephen Treherne & Simon Belcher would be using the 1.198 mile Indy Circuit which has a tenuous link between The CART series & Legends racing … Wait for it … The Indy Circuit overall lap record is held by no less than Paul Tracy in a Team Players CART Car, set when the series visited Brands in 2003 … The CART series is an American series … Legends racing originated in America. Sorry - it’s the best I could do.
