Race 1 (Saturday 21 May) Both Scuderia Ecosse cars were given drive-through penalties in the first race at Knockhill for changing tyres and drivers at the same time. Despite the penalty, the two cars of Kinch / Kirkaldy and Mullen/ Niarchos secured podium finishes. In GT3 Marco Attard and Nick Adams secured second place in class in the Damax Ferrari.
Race 2 (Sunday 22 May) Scuderia Ecosse secured a one-two at the twisty circuit, with Nathan Kinch and Andrew Kirkaldy scoring a clean start-to-finish win. Team mates Tim Mullen and Chris Niarchos started the race from second position. Early on, Mullen ran wide coming out of Seat corner, which saw him dropping back to fifth position. After the pit stops, Niarchos managed to fight his way back through the field and finished the race in second place. In GT3, Miles Hulford and Jamie Smyth finished third to secure their second podium finish of the 2005 season.
