Some of the drivers race suit patches.
Never mind the cars even the badge is rusting!
Some BMW press releases with race results, championship standings, prize money etc.

When I get a bit more time I will type everything out but here's the car specifications to be going on with...
Anatomy of the BMW County Championship
The BMW 323i's which are representing their respective counties in this year's BMW County Championship initially started life as standard road cars. They were transported straight from BMW Munich where they were taken to Tom Walkinshaw Racing at Kidlington, Oxford. Tom, together with Hugo Tippet, the team manager and 6 racing technicians then modified the cars to racing specifications which were as follows :-
