Stoxnet

British Championship

Organised by the BSCDA and originally titled British Drivers Championship, the title is decided over qualifying heats and a final.

The heats are run in graded order, with the final gridded in points scored order.

The event was not staged in 1971 or 1977 because of disagreement over the venue.
