Bespoke Car Builds
Ground-Up Race & Track Car Builds, Done Properly
At Ben Sharpe Racing, we design and build race cars and track cars from the ground up, as well as take on part-finished or underdeveloped projects and turn them into properly engineered machines.
Every build is approached with the same mindset:
measured, deliberate, and built for performance.
This isn’t a quick bolt-on job.
It’s a complete, structured build process designed to deliver a car that performs on track, not just looks the part.
What We Build
We work across a range of performance-focused projects:
-
Ground-up race car builds
-
Track day car builds
-
Club-level and competitive race cars
-
Performance-focused road-to-track conversions
-
Part-built or unfinished projects requiring completion
-
Re-engineering of existing builds that aren’t working as they should
Whether you’re starting from a shell or bringing us something half-done, we’ll build it properly.
Our Approach
Every build follows a structured, engineering-led process:
Planning & Specification
We define the purpose of the car, performance goals, and build direction from the start.
Component Selection
Every part is chosen for a reason — not just what’s available or “what people use”.
Fabrication & Installation
Work is carried out to a high standard, ensuring reliability and performance under load.
Setup & Integration
All elements of the build are aligned — suspension, drivetrain, braking and driver setup.
Testing & Development
Where required, we support testing and refinement to ensure the car performs as intended.
Built for Performance
A proper build isn’t just about parts — it’s about how everything works together.
We focus on:
-
Balance and drivability
-
Reliability under track conditions
-
Consistency across sessions
-
Driver confidence and feedback
-
Long-term development potential
The end result is a car that works — every time you take it out.
Part-Finished Projects
We regularly see builds that have stalled, gone off track, or simply aren’t performing as expected.
We can:
-
Assess the current state of the build
-
Identify issues and weak points
-
Rework or complete the project properly
-
Bring structure back to the build process
No ego, just a focus on getting the car where it needs to be
