Excelr8 Motorsport

The team joined the BTCC in 2019, using MG6 GT cars previously operated by Triple Eight and AmD Tuning. The cars were driven by Rob Smith and Sam Osborne. During the first year, the team secured two points-scoring finishes.

In 2020, the team replaced the ageing MG with brand new Hyundai i30 Fastback N Performance cars that it had developed in house during the winter. Senna Proctor and Chris Smiley would share driving duties and both secured podium finishes, despite the COVID-19 pandemic restricting the amount of testing that was possible with the new car.

For 2021, EXCELR8 joined forces with Trade Price Cars to enter four Hyundais under the name Excelr8 with TradePriceCars.com, retaining the services of Chris Smiley, and taking on Tom Ingram, Jack Butel, and Rick Parfitt Jr. Nick Halstead replaced Rick Parfitt Jr. for the Croft round of 2021 after Parfitt suffered a back injury. Halstead placed 26th, 25th and 21st in the 3 races at Croft. Jack Butel suffered a concussion from a crash in Race 3 at the Donington event which saw him sit out of the season finale at Brands Hatch, Andy Wilmot replaced Butel after last racing in the BTCC in 2015.

Tom Ingram and Jack Butel were retained for the 2022 season, with Tom Chilton and Daniel Lloyd joining from Ciceley Motorsport and Power Maxed Racing respectively. Ingram won race 1 at Donington Park to take an early lead in the championship. Ingram won races 1 and 2 at Oulton Park whilst Daniel Lloyd won races 1 and 2 at Croft. James Gornall replaced Butel for the aformentioned Croft round due to personal reasons. The Mini Challenge UK driver scored 2 points in race 1 with a P14, he followed with a DNF and a P17. Ingram scored a hat-trick of 3rd places at Snetterton whilst Chilton retired from race 1 and didn't start races 2 and 3. Jack Butel finally scored his first points of 2022 with a P15 finish in race 3 at Round 8. Ingram would win race 3 at Silverstone and races 1 and 2 at Brands Hatch, winning 3 races in a row before securing his first BTCC title. The team managed to secure a P2 in the Teams' standings, beating their previous best of P5 in 2021.

Ronan Pearson joined the team and Nick Halstead returned for 2023 to partner Tom Chilton and reigning champion Tom Ingram. The Excelr8 team scored a podium in every race of Round 1 at Donington Park, with Ingram scoring a P3 in race 1 and a P2 in race 3, whilst Tom Chilton took his first win in the Hyundai and Nick Halstead took a career-best P7 finish in the tricky conditions of race 2. Ronan Pearson originally scored a P3 finish in the chaotic Donington race but was later disqualified after failing the ride height check. Ingram picked up more podiums in Brands Hatch before he took his first win of 2023 in race 3 at Snetterton. A dip in performance for the team through Thruxton, Oulton Park and Croft saw Pearson score 1 point and Ingram only score 5 podium finishes in the intense title fight with 3 time champion Ashley Sutton. Tom Ingram would finally return to the top step in Race 2 at the Donington GP round, but he only gained 3 points on Sutton with the NAPA driver finishing in P2. Ingram scored three 2nd places in a row at rounds 27, 28 and 29 but would be too late as Sutton took the title away from Ingram. Once again, Excelr8 would find themselves P2 in the Teams' standings behind a dominant NAPA Racing UK.

For 2024, no driver or car changes were made. Only a slight tweak to the team name was made going under the Team Bristol Street Motors moniker. Ingram won the first 2 races at Donington, following with a P4 in the reverse grid race. Ronan Pearson claimed his first BTCC win in the reverse grid race at Brands Hatch ahead of teammate Tom Chilton. Ingram secured 2 P3 finishes at Thruxton after not scoring a podium since Brands Hatch race 2. A win at Oulton Park would bring him back into the title fight with Ashley Sutton and Jake Hill. Tom Chilton was the only Excelr8 driver to win at Croft. A winless weekend at Croft for the champ
