Darvill Racing

Endurance Racing since the Fifty's.... Darvill Racing is firmly established as one of the leading privateer endurance race teams in the United Kingdom. A long history… Darvill Racing began in the fifties by late Peter Darvill, he had considerable successes throughout the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s as a solo rider with Manx Grand Prix podium finishes and finally a win. He then moved onto the TT and managed a number of top-ten finishes and given the field during those years (Agositini, Reed, Ivy, Redman etcetera) this was no minor achievement. Peter then moved to endurance racing wining the Barcelona 24hrs twice, coming 2nd at the Bol d’Or and also won the World Endurance Championship in ’71 (as Darvill Racing). Peter suffered a major injury during a race in Barcelona that ended his solo race career in 1976, however as soon as he could walk again he rejoined the World Endurance circuits as Team Manager.
