Nijo Racing is a team owned by Chris Williamson and is based in Nantwich, UK.

Building on experience in various leagues and having raced with established GPVWC teams such as ST Racing and PB Racing, Chris Williamson founded Nijo Racing in late 2010. The team initially entered the league by securing a place in the 2010 Masters series with a driver line-up comprising of Williamson and David Jundt. Within just a few rounds, both drivers had already tasted success including a podium in the team's début race and a victory at the Snetterton circuit. The team went on to secure 3rd place overall in the constructor's championship.

Origin 2010

Although the team is based in the United Kingdom, it has it's origins in Japan, where team founder Chris Williamson started his career as a sim racer. Indeed the team takes its name from the Japanese name Nijo (二条 - pronouced Nee-jo) which is a reference to a part of the city of Kyoto.
