GBS Customer enjoying a strong start to the Motorsport Season in his Zero....

/ Great British Sports Cars/

We always love to see customers out enjoying their Zeros, whether on the road, track, or competing in motorsport events around the UK. Recently, we received an update from GBS customer Roy Woodfield, who has been having an impressive season competing in both the Curborough Championship and the Midland Speed Championship with his Zero.

Roy is currently lying 2nd in class and an impressive 9th overall out of 70 competitors entered in the Curborough Championship — a fantastic achievement and a real testament to both his driving and the capability of the Zero platform.

Alongside this, Roy is also competing in the Midland Speed Championship, which gives him the opportunity to compete at a variety of well-known venues around the country. So far this season, he has already tackled the famous Shelsley Walsh hill climb and is preparing for a double-header event at Prescott on 13th and 14th June, followed by Harewood on 1st and 2nd August, alongside additional Midland Speed Championship rounds at Curborough.

Despite only having completed two rounds so far in the Midland Speed Championship, Roy is already sitting 3rd in class and 37th overall, showing just how competitive both he and the car have been this year.

Roy has also been discussing potential upgrades with Richard, including gearbox, suspension setup, and brake improvements, as he looks to further develop the car and continue improving performance. Some of these upgrades may be completed before the end of the current season, with further developments potentially planned over the winter period.

It’s always fantastic for the whole GBS team to see customers using and enjoying their Zeros in competition, and Roy’s results so far this year are a brilliant example of just how capable and versatile the Zero can be in motorsport.

We’d like to wish Roy the very best of luck for the remainder of the season and we look forward to following his progress throughout the year.
