You will need approx £100k of kit to run the cars/team (truck, fueling, toys etc)
Work to that and anyone can run in BTCC, have any less than that then give up now, save yourself the heartache.

So roughly around £600K-£700K per car.
... or circa £2.5M for four cars in the case of Team Hard. Which begs the same old question we've been asking time and again... how did Tony Gilham - a man who not that long ago had an auction on eBay trying to find the funding for a single meeting on a rented S2000 BMW - manage to fund this.
