Vic Hollman, the Bowman owner, has a long and successful
career in the motorsport business. Vic started in the 70’s
manufacturing the Hawke Formula Ford and Formula 2000
racing cars. The company enjoyed tremendous success
winning numerous championships and selling many race cars
throughout Europe and the USA.
In the early 80’s Vic formed his own company, PRS Racing
Cars, and successfully went on to manufacture and sell over
100 Formula Ford Cars worldwide, winning several British,
European and US Championships.
After a brief respite during which time he set up and ran his
own Machine shop and Engineering company, he joined his
brother in the early 90’s to help run a Formula Three Racing
Car Team. The Bowman Team went on to win the prestigious
British Championship, Macau Grand Prix and Madras Grand Prix.
It was an exciting time with much success.
The team went on to build their own carbon fibre Formula Three
Car and a Formula Ford 2000 space frame car for the exciting
US Championship. Both cars were extremely competitive
and set the standard for Bowman’s quest for excellence.
In the late 90’s and early 2000’s Bowman built and raced the
‘Factory’ Peugeot 306 GTI Sedan Cars, subsequently winning
the British Saloon Car Championship.
The Kart side of the business started in 1995, with the design of
Championship winning Pro Karts, followed by a variety of other
racing karts. During 1999 the Company started to manufacture
karts for the Concession Indoor and Outdoor Rental market.
Bowman now specialise in the manufacture of High Quality
Rental Karts for the global market with superb engineering and
excellent performance in the Bowman tradition. |
