  • Matt Neal has had one of the best careers in BTCC history. However, toward the end of his career, he fell out of love with the sport. It took a while before he gave historic racing a go, but after his first Goodwood Revival experience, he got it. This is just part of the story of how Team Dynamics came to be. A company that preps and builds a whole host of modern and historic racing cars as well as being one of the most important wheel suppliers in motorsport.
    Sit back, grab a cup of tea and listen to the fascinating full story.

    brilliant vid, been watching Matt in BTCC since 92 and over the years have loved him, hated him then loved him. Great to see how diverse TD have become. Now i love watching him in the tinas.

    Awesome video. I am currently restoring a genuine Mitsubishi Mirage cup car, The only one to be verified from the 1988 Jackie Chan trophy cup race, #15 driven by Dieter Quester. One day i hope to have a shop even half this size doing this exact kind of work. For now i am just thankful to have my small, dark, single car garage and my own piece of automotive history to bring back to life.

    Stunning cars.... Those old school Fords were my kind of thing. The Carpi and RS2000... Had a couple of Capri's, had 3 MK2's, but the RS was always outta reach unfortunately.. I bet Matt loves throwing those around.. I know i would... 300+ podiums, wow,, That's some career.. A job very well done..

    Entirely with Matt on the historics - spent the last weekend at Donington Park with the Masters Historic Racing package with their pre-85 Formula One series, and it was a blast.
    Preaching to the choir here i know, but if you've not been to a historic race weekend, i urge you to go.

    Wasn’t a great fan of Matt when he was racing but massive respect for him now 👍 Great driver and worked hard in difficult circumstances against big teams in BTCC racing, great commercial and marketing with Team Dynamics, I did buy some of his wheels for second hand and had them modified to suit Mk2 Escort. Great documentary video👍Saw him at Goodwood Revival along with other great BTCC drivers, Plato etc. keep going Matt you have a new fan😉

    I remember Matt's dad Steve at Oulton Pk in 1967 telling one Guy Edwards after a little "coming together" in the saloon race;-"Don't worry son,you'll get used to it if you do any more"!!
    Guy Edwards,of course went on to be known as "Mr Sponsorship" & a career in international sports car racing & F1.

    Absolutely brilliant insight into the team/operation. I had the pleasure of meeting Barry P back when they were running the FN2 Civics and I was writing for the specialist Japanese car mags and doing some freelancing for Honda...one of the most genuine and friendly people I ever met in the industry! Wonder who owns that DC2 Integra that was in the background? 🤔

    As a casual observer you just couldn't understand the difference between modern touring motor sport and most people in historics.
    Matt and Jason were the last of the drivers to arrive that made an impact. ( Not just in other cars)😂
    Racing something that is representative of what a manufacturer produces is what touring cars were during the high times, they lost their way 12-15 years ago, Shame

    Brilliant see Matt still well involved. But suppose being family owned and ran team dynamics was inevitable. Hope see some classic 90s cars back racing. Matt & Plato all over again. My 2 fav drivers of btcc. Had a few type r civics, so obviously followed team dynamics in btcc.
    Since plato hit the scene in the Renault Laguna had a love for him to 👍 rather at odds many times my fav 2 drivers. But made all the more special times 😘
