Tom is back on track - with our logo

Weltch Media was back on the race track yesterday (Sunday) - our logo featuring on Tom Sutton's Legends Car in the National Championships at Hednesford Raceway in Staffordshire.

Tom, a long-time friend of Weltch Media, is a former British champion in the highly competitive UK oval-track Legends Cars - high-speed 5/8-scale replicas of classic American stock cars. He recently returned to the formula, with the aim of making a serious bid for honours next season.

Car and driver were in good form on Hednesford's quarter-mile oval, and despite being handicapped by a back-of-the-grid start position, Tom had worked his way into the top 10 of the championship race, before a stoppage.

Based in Boston, Lincolnshire, Tom is an experienced and accomplished racer. He started competing in Junior Ministox in 2001 and switched to Rebels a few years later, winning the rookie of the year title and taking several podium finishes before moving to Legends Cars in 2011.

Again, he won the rookie championship in his first season and went on to win the semi-pro championship twice, as well as the British championship, numerous race wins and podium places.

He also competed in autograss for 18 months, 2013-2014, qualifying for the national championship in his first full season.

We'll be following the rest of Tom's campaign with interest, so look out for more updates here.

🏁 Weltch Media has been involved in motorsport for many years, working on publicity and promotional campaigns for promoters, race teams, and drivers.

We've helped leading Legends Car racers in both the UK and Irish Championships, as well as working with Mendips Raceway to publicise the Formula 2 Stock Car World Championship final.

In recent years, we've teamed up with national hot rod driver, Mark Shelper, in his races around the UK, and with race-winning teams in international sim-racing. 

And for 2026, we're partnering Rebels Racing to present the Weltch Media World-Wide Rebellion.
