An impressive performance for the team in 1991 saw him win at Brands Hatch, finishing the year in tenth place, despite only competing in five rounds.

The team were not front runners in the championship, and another disappointing season followed in 1995, which was both Toyota's and Sugden's final year racing in the BTCC but he worked as test driver for Vauxhall in 1996 as they developed the Vectra.

Sugden's sports car racing career began in 1997 with an entry in the British GT Championship.

On 9 October 2010 Tim won his debut F2 final in an evening race meeting at Skegness Stadium after working at Brands Hatch earlier that day getting an immediate upgrade to Yellow Top.

He is competing in selected F2 Stock car rounds this year(2010) and won the Grand National final at Birmingham in November.
