The Brabham BT2 was an open-wheel racing car built by Brabham in 1962, the first car produced by the new team that Jack Brabham and Ron Tauranac set up after Brabham left Cooper in 1961. It was designed as a single-seater for the Formula Junior category and used a tubular steel spaceframe wrapped in a fibreglass body, a Ford-Cosworth 109E engine derived from the Ford Anglia, a four-speed manual gearbox and disc brakes on all four wheels. Eleven units were built. Frank Gardner and Jo Schlesser raced it in 1962, and Schlesser won the English team's first victory. In 1963 it was updated and became the BT6, of which twenty more were built.
