Jamsport Racing

What Jamsport Racing does

Jamsport Racing is a private UK motorsport racing team founded in 2013 by Team Principal Jamie Going as an extension of his tuning business JamSport UK Ltd. Operating from a Northampton workshop (2 Lower Farm Road, Moulton Park Industrial Estate), the team manages approximately 21 drivers across six UK championships in 2025: MINI CHALLENGE JCW Sport, MINI CHALLENGE JCW, BRSCC Fiesta Junior Championship, BRSCC Fiesta Championship, Airtec Motorsport Fiesta ST240 Championship, and TCR UK, with additional involvement in the Bambino Kart Club. Vehicles run on the TOCA package and include Ford Fiesta ST150/ST240/ST250 variants, MINI JCW Sport spec (225 BHP 2.0-litre turbo with Goodyear slicks, Alcon brakes, Nitron dampers), and a TCR-specification Subaru WRX STi.

The team's product surface is built around three interlocking offerings: (1) the Jamsport Racing Scholarship, a multi-stage selection process screening 40-50 aspiring drivers annually across driving skill, simulator ability, fitness, reaction times, media skills, and data analysis, with the winner securing a fully funded race season valued at over £100,000, entry fees of £750 per round; (2) 1-2-1 Development Days combining half-day simulator coaching with in-car instruction, price on application; and (3) full championship race team services covering car preparation, engineering support, and race weekend operations. Sister subsidiary Jamsport Media supplies content creation, social media training, and driver profile development. Supporting partners include Goodyear (tyres), ARC Racewear (race suits), Gym Bound (fitness), The Motorsport School (ARDS), SBR (Vinyl Detail Fiesta ST150 Challenge), and TOCA.

Revenue is generated from a mix of scholarship entry fees, driver development day bookings, and per-driver championship service packages across the five primary championships. Pricing is quote-based with a publicly disclosed £750 unit fee per scholarship round and approximately 50 participants per cohort. Ownership and control remain concentrated with founder Jamie Going and his family; the company (legal entity Jam Sport LTD) has not raised external funding and operates with a lean core staff of seven full-time employees servicing 21 drivers.
