Timeline
Franklin Goodman Sytner (born 29 June 1944 in Liverpool) is a British racing driver, a Life Member of the BRDC, and was the 1988 British Touring Car Champion, driving a BMW M3.
Together with his brother Alan Sytner, who at one time owned the Cavern Club in Liverpool Frank founded his first car dealership in Nottingham in 1968, specialising in BMWs.
He started racing in the early 1970s in Formula Ford and later became known for racing in the Clubmans formula for front-engined sports cars, before moving into Touring Cars in the 1980s.
As a successful BMW dealer with a chain of dealerships it was natural that he should gravitate towards their products, however he started his BTCC career driving for Tom Walkinshaw's TWR team, which was running the Rover SD1 Vitesse.
However, Sytner and Walkinshaw fell out and Frank abruptly left the team halfway through his first season.
Sytner joined the BMW team, fielding the 635 model run by Ted Grace Racing.
Sytner BMW was the first dealership in the UK to market the Alpina brand when it was given an exclusive contract in the early 1980s.
It was Sytner who protested the legality of the TWR Rovers in 1983, an action which eventually cost Steve Soper the championship that season.
Sytner entered a semi-works BMW 635 in 1984, running under the Sytner Racing banner and finished second in class to Andy Rouse.
Sytner took a year out in 1986, but returned in 1987, having joined Prodrive who had taken over the factory BMW contract, running the BMW M3.
Success was immediate, with several wins, before taking the BTCC title outright in 1988.
