There is a record entry for the second David Leslie Super Touring Car and F1 Festival staged at Knockhill this weekend.
Supported by Fife Council, the event is named for the Annan-born BTCC star who tragically died in a plane crash in 2008,
The championship first arrived at Knockhill last September with an historic double win by Italian racing legend Gabriele Tarquini.
This year an increased entry list has been received, with some of the most iconic cars ever to have raced in the UK again doing battle on track.
Super Tourers will head the grid but thunderous Group A Sierras, and new era 2l BTCC cars from 1992 onwards will also add to the grid.
There may even be some cars of an older vintage.
Legendary double British Touring Car champion John Cleland from Galashiels will be hoping for better luck than last year.
He qualified third in 2016 but an engine issue in his Super Touring Vectra meant that he was not able to race on either day.
Stewart Whyte from Auchterarder also suffered heartache as he was involved in two racing incidents with prevented him from finishing either race in his Honda Accord.
Knockhill Director of Events Stuart Gray said that with a record entry of 15 Super Tourers, including cars from BMW, Ford, Honda, Nissan, Volvo and Audi, the track was over the moon that the championship was coming north with more numbers than last year.
“In addition to a quality grid on track, the pit lane garages will feature a whole host of special exhibits that will be on display and being paraded too.
“The complement of racers and show cars will attract race fans from all over.”
Formula One cars in the shape of an ex-Nelson Piquet Benetton and Fernando Alonso Renault, as well as a F3000 of Laurent Aiello, will also be gracing the circuit and entertaining the fans and given idea conditions, one may well set a new lap record.
The teams will be arriving in Scotland from Friday June 2 onwards for testing and unusually, the Super Tourers will have one race on Saturday June 3 and one race on Sunday June 4, making it a full weekend of action.
