Additional description of VTR: | Vader Trophy Racing, also known as VT Racing, also known as VTR was setup by Neil Stratton and Dave Ellis back in November 2004 to compete in the Bullrun 1000 Km. Unfortunately due to other commitments, Dave Ellis was unable to race, so Matthew Parry and Gavin Wilson joined Neil to take the car out for its debut run. With a Ford GT painted by Simon Steele, the team lead the race for a large period of time until the pit stops sorted themselves out and the team finished a very respectable 5th.
Since then the team entered dEEL at Spa, and also a 1000 Km race round the Nurburgring on New Years Day in 2005. Since then the team entered WOSEC for a full season, and the real ride began. With up to four cars racing at a time, the VT Racing cars were always found at the front of the grid, even winning their home event at Silverstone with Gavin Wilson and Jannis Koopmann at the wheel.
More recently we've been seen racing in UKGPL, Phoenix Racing Series, SSCA, OATAS and VT Endurance, plus numerous one off events.
