Croft Set for Battle of Britain Race Weekend

Darlington and District Motor Club (D&DMC) returns to Croft Circuit with their annual Battle of Britain race meeting next weekend (22/23 August 2026) which will feature action on three wheels as well as four.

The popular and historic two-day event will host rounds 11 and 12 of the well-supported Northern Saloon and Sports Car Championship (NSSCC), which is run by the local motor club and boasts a bumper 40-car field, with a pair of 15-minute races over the weekend.

Round five of the highly competitive Focus Cup Championship will also be contested at the North Yorkshire track with a race on Saturday and one on Sunday too as drivers battle it out in Mk2 and Mk3 versions of the Ford Focus which will offer some close wheel-to-wheel action.

As usual, there will also be a strong Scottish contingent competing over the course of the weekend. The Scottish Legends Car Championships will return to Croft to take part in three races on each day while the Scottish Classic Sports, Historic Modsports and Special Saloons Championship also take to the track on both days.

Sidecars will once again be in action when the FRSA F2 British Sidecar and FSRA Pre Injection British Sidecar Championships compete over both days with many of the sport’s leading lights battling for supremacy around the full International 2.1-mile circuit.
