About Beechdean AMR Beechdean AMR are one of the UK’s most successful GT racing teams of the past decade. Founded by Andrew Howard in 2001 to race in Mini Miglias, the High Wycombe-based outfit wasted little time becoming race winners in the British GT Championship and were series runners-up in the GTC category in 2007 with a Ferrari. Beechdean became an Aston Martin Racing (AMR) customer team in 2008 and have remained loyal to the iconic British marque in GT competition ever since. Since making the switch, the team has won six British GT crowns across GT3 and GT4 categories, the European Le Mans Series GTE title and taken an outright pole position at the 24 Hours of Spa. A season in LMP1 prototype racing also resulted in a race win in the ELMS and a first start at the Le Mans 24 Hours. Notable drivers include Formula 1 World Champion Nigel Mansell, Le Mans winners Darren Turner and Jonny Adam and celebrity baker Paul Hollywood. In 2023, Beechdean AMR contest the Intelligent Money British GT Championship with an Aston Martin Vantage GT3.
