The second round of the 2000 Auto Trader RAC British Touring Car Championship took place at Snetterton over the weekend of the 23rd-24th April. 
===Practice & Qualifying===
Jason Plato and Matthew Emmens came into the second meeting of the year as joint Championship leaders after strong weekends at the season opening round at Thruxton. Anthony Reid, Frank Biela and Tim Harvey rounded out the top 5. In the Manufacturers Championship, Vauxhall had a healthy lead after a dominant weekend at Thruxton ahead of Nissan and Ford while Honda and Alfa Romeo endured difficult weekends and hoped to bounce back immediately. 
While Vauxhall dominated 2 weeks earlier, it was Ford who came to the fore in Free Practice with Anthony Reid topping the opening encounter while Alain Menu topped the 2nd. Alfa Romeo and Honda both enjoyed more competitive showings with Fabrizio Giovanardi and James Thompson appearing in the top 3. 
The single lap shootout for Race 1 was topped by Alain Menu who just pipped Nissans Laurent Aïello to pole position. Giovanardi took third with Anthony Reid behind with Frank Biela rounding out the Top 5. It was Vauxhalls turn to struggle with all 3 cars outside the top 10 in 12th, 13th and 16th. 
The longer qualifying session for Race 2 produced a similar result with Menu taking his 2nd pole of the weekend while Giovanardi secured his first front row of the season. Joint Championship leader Emmens would finish the session 3rd while the longer session allowed Thompson to take 4th ahead of teamate Tom Kristensen.
