Celtic Speed : About Celtic Speed
The Celtic Speed race team is involved in four racing disciplines: the Porsche Carrera Cup GB, the SMRC Scottish Mini Cooper Cup, the Group C Series, and Formula One Historics.
Porsche Carrera Cup GB
The Porsche Carrera Cup GB is a one make racing series that takes place in the United Kingdom for the Porsche 911. In 2013, the Porsche Carrera Cup GB will again be one of the most important and prestigious race championships in Britain and will be a major support race to the MSA British Touring Car Championship.
The 10-round championship visits all the country's leading circuits, including Brands Hatch, Silverstone, Donington Park, Thruxton and Snetterton. Our home round at Knockhill, in Fife, takes place on August 24/25.
Celtic Speed has two scottish drivers — Rory Butcher and George Brewster — entered for the 2013 Porsche Carrera Cup GB.

The Celtic Speed Mini Cooper Cup
The SMRC (Scottish Motor Racing Club) Celtic Speed Mini Cooper Cup enters its ninth championship season in 2013. Once again the championship has attracted a bumper 32-car grid of drivers, ranging from complete novices to seasoned racers. Not only are the races incredibly exciting to watch and be a part of, but they are also fiercely competitive. Steve Kerr races for Celtic Speed in a BMW Mini Cooper 1600, White Number 12 and Daniel Dreelan in the Blue Number 13. Gemma Dreelan will make occasional appearances in the championship behind the wheel of her Red Mini Number 11.

F1 Historics
The 1976 Ford/Cosworth-powered March 761 sat on pole position once and even had one fastest lap during its grand prix career in 1976 driven by Italian Arturo Merzario.
The March F1 cars have a specific Scottish connection. In 1970 — coincidentally on March 22 — Formula One world champion Jackie Stewart gave the March team it's first victory when he won the non-championship Race of Champions from pole position. A month later, Stewart won the Spanish Grand Prix.
