Origins
K8ley Racing was formed by Rhys Kateley in 1998 to compete in Virtual Motorsport, with the team base being set up in his hometown of Northwich. The team spent many years competing in Virtual Touring Cars independently before joining forces with Mercedes in more recent years. The team made its debut in eVirtual at the beginning of the 2021 season, when series organiser Bradley Downton opened up the grid for a number of new teams to join.
