TOCA: The Organisation Behind BTCC

TOCA stands for Touring Car Association, and it’s the governing and promotional body that runs the BTCC. In short, TOCA is the organisation that ensures the championship happens.

From setting technical rules to securing TV deals and managing the calendar, TOCA has been instrumental in shaping the BTCC into one of the UK’s most popular and competitive racing series.
