Neil Fowler
Neil’s story...
Neil Fowler started racing go-karts at the age of fourteen and it wasn’t long before he was winning races. Just three years later he had his first outing in a single seater race car at Donington and hasn’t looked back.
In hindsight it was probably inevitable. Father, Rob, had joined the BRM F1 team as an apprentice based at Folkingham airfield near Bourne in Lincolnshire. With 17 F1 wins, a World Championship with Graham Hill and drivers such as Stewart, Beltoise, Trintignant and Behra they were regular race winners into the early seventies. After the 1977 season Rob, together with colleague Rick Hall, set up on their own restoring old BRMs and, in 1981 when BRM finally closed, they took over the engine test house on the airfield.
In 2001 Neil won his first HFF championship with ten wins that season and earning the John Fowlston Trophy as a result. In the same year he won the inaugural Walter Hayes Trophy at Silverstone – happily accepting the cup from the legendary Jackie Stewart.
HFF championships followed in 2002, 2003, 2004 & 2005 and along the way he has also won single seater races in class and outright at Spa and a debut win in an FF2000 at Snetterton.
2006 hasn’t gone all his way! Despite having won six races this season he lost overall to arch-rival Nelson Rowe. Putting the car into the tyre wall at Silverstone and being disqualified, controversially, at Croix in July helped seal his fate. But, as Neil said – ‘it couldn’t go to a better bloke’.
Nevertheless, Neil has enjoyed his racing this year. Pau in May was a new experience. The racing there is wonderful and to see a pit complex and permanent grandstands in the centre of town, not to mention the atmosphere and enthusiasm for the event, came as a nice surprise.
Dijon-Prenois, in the heart of Burgundy, hosted a historic race in early October. Getting the cars ready by moonlight was novel but luckily day had dawned by the time the cars were on track. The long straight was a bit monotonous at first but the first race was a wet one and it got more interesting and, in hindsight, the Brits all agreed it had been a great weekend.
In 2007 Neil will once again race in the HSCC Historic Formula Ford championship. He is looking forward to going back to Pau, Spa and Dijon and there’s an F2 ready to race …..

Neil wins the 2005 Historic Formula Ford Championship - thanks to the loan of David Wild's Lola!
