 The Porsche Club Speed Championship is the perfect way to start in motorsport, without the cost or pressure of racing. For some competitors, the Speed Championship is used as a stepping-stone from attending track days towards actual racing, while other drivers stay in and enjoy the championship for a number of years.
Competition, value for money and a good social atmosphere are some of the key features of the Speed Championship as competitors race against the clock at circuits such as Brands Hatch and Goodwood, as well as at classic hill-climb venues like Shelsley Walsh and Prescott. The mix of disciplines sees all aspects of car control tested, the champion being the driver who performs the most consistently across all the venues.
David Hilton clinched the 2008 Porsche Club Speed title by the narrowest margin in his three-litre Class Three 911E. Champion by just 0.3 of a point, David headed a trio of drivers who had all scored 163-points, his tally of 163.6 points seeing him come out ahead after 12-events.
"For me it is all about the friendliness and camaraderie of the series" said David. "I have done seven full seasons in the Porsche Speed Championship and that is the biggest thing about the series."

 Saturday 6th June saw the Porsche Club Great Britain Speed Champion- ship at the UK’s longest hill climb at Harewood in Yorkshire. It appeared that the unseasonably wet and cold weather followed us from Wiscombe with heavy rain overnight and into the morning. As the day progressed however, the rain eased off in time for some dry timed runs in the afternoon on this challenging and exciting hill. Fifteen PCGB drivers entered this round and, after starting on a difficult, slippery surface, they all whittled their times down in the afternoon to levels approaching that of our previous warmer and drier visits to Harewood.
