Welcome to the BRCA 1/8th Stock Cars section, where we race 1/8th scale versions of the iconic full-size Brisca F1 Stock Cars.

Our scaled-down machines are purpose-built for competitive oval racing. Each car features:

• A welded steel chassis

• A painted plastic bodyshell styled after full-size F1 Stock Cars

• RC servos controlling steering and throttle

• A 3.5cc nitro-fuelled engine producing approximately 2–3 bhp

• Rear-wheel drive via a belt-driven single beam axle

These cars may be small in scale, but they deliver serious performance and action-packed racing.

The Racing Season

The season runs from March through to October, with meetings held across the UK — and occasionally in Holland — at purpose-built oval circuits.

Tracks are typically:

• 30–40 metres in length

• Tarmac surfaced

• Surrounded by steel plate safety barriers

Contact is not only permitted — it is part of the sport. All cars are equipped with heavy-duty steel front and rear bumpers, designed to move competitors off the racing line in a bid to make progress.

Drivers are graded according to ability. Higher-graded drivers start from the rear of the grid, ensuring competitive and entertaining racing at every level.

2026 National Calendar

The BRCA 1/8th Stock Cars are pleased to announce the 2026 National Championship calendar.

National meetings follow a slightly different format to regular club events:

• Races start by driver grade

• Four rounds of qualifying

• Each qualifying race lasts 4 minutes

• The top two qualifiers progress directly to the A Final

• Remaining drivers compete in quarter and semi-finals

• The 5-minute A Final decides the overall winner

Whether you are a seasoned oval racer or new to the formula, 1/8th Stock Cars offer close, competitive and highly entertaining racing throughout the season.
