Power Maxed Racing is a British auto racing team based in Bidford-on-Avon, Warwickshire. The team has raced in the British Touring Car Championship, since 2015 after purchasing BTC Racing in February 2015.[1]

British Touring Car Championship

Chevrolet Cruze (2015–2016)

After having purchased BTC Racing in February 2015, the team will enter the 2015 British Touring Car Championship season with Dave Newsham and Josh Cook driving an NGTC Chevrolet Cruze each.[2][3]. The last season with the Chevrolet Cruze saw Emmerdale star Kelvin Fletcher take the wheel.

Vauxhall Astra (2017-)

On 22 November 2016 Power Maxed Racing announced that Vauxhall will be returning to BTCC with the Astra for the 2017 season.

The 2017 drivers were Tom Chilton and Senna Proctor. Senna secured victory in the prestigious Jack Sears Trophy, awarded to best rookie, with an unprecedented 5 rounds of the season left to run. The car earned a number of podiums under Tom Chilton & guest driver, WTCC Champion Rob Huff.

2018 will see 2015 Jack Sears Champion Josh Cook return to PMR alongside Proctor, in what the team and driver hope will be the first year of many. Proctor would take both his and the team's first win in the second race at Brands Hatch, after gambling with slick tyres on a drying track. This was followed up by Cook taking the team's first pole position three weeks later at Donington Park, before converting it into his first win in race 1.
