Build the foundations
Race-ready fitness, consistent saving, sim seat time and learning the championship from the paddock outward.
Veteran-owned privateer racing project · Shropshire
Built for the grid.
One ordinary bloke. One family-backed racing dream. A mission to turn early mornings, sim laps and hard-earned savings into a BMW 116 Sprint Championship start.
This is BokBokMotorsport
The dream is real.
The work starts now.
BokBokMotorsport is Paul Wilson’s route from the sofa to a real starting grid. No pretend team, no overnight success story and no bottomless budget—just a family-friendly privateer project built openly, one honest step at a time.
The target is the BMW 116 Sprint Championship in an E87 116i. The work before that flag drops matters just as much: race fitness, disciplined saving, learning the car, improving on the sim and documenting every win, mistake and setback.
“I genuinely feel this is the closest I have come to making meaningful steps towards the grid.”
— Paul Wilson, Founder & Driver
Veteran owned and run
Built on service.
Driven by purpose.
BokBokMotorsport is owned and run by former Royal Engineer Paul Wilson. The project carries forward the discipline, resilience and determination developed during his military service—qualities now focused on one mission: earning a place on the BMW 116 Sprint grid.

I started on pole…
Starting first at Donington, two mistakes turned the race upside down. What followed was a fight back through the field.

One goal. One journey.
One grid.
The grid is the destination. Everything between here and there is the story.
