Racing is at the heart of everything we do, race car preparation and competitive motorsport are the backbone of the company and every road car upgrade we develop starts on a race track in some form. We offer race car preperation, driver training and a full turn key operation for road and off road racing.
Thorney Motorsport are quite unique in the motor racing World in that as well as an established racing operation we also have an extensive racing operation. Specialising in BMW and Vauxhall models (although we are happy to work on any model for competition) our history has been one of being the first to prepare and win in a variety of models and race series.
