For this year, the old Ginetta G20 had been replaced by the new Ginetta G40.

During the winter of 2010 Ingram made it into the final four of the Formula Renault Racing Steps Foundation Scholarship.

In 2011 Ingram became a BRDC Rising Star. Despite limited testing he won the Ginetta GT Supercup championship driving for Plans Motorsport in a Ginetta G50 with two rounds to spare; he managed to pick up 10 wins and a total of 18 podiums, 13 fastest laps and 13 pole positions starts.

2014

Ingram made his debut in the British Touring Car Championship, driving for Speedworks Motorsport in their Toyota Avensis. Despite this being one of the first NGTC cars Ingram made some good progress with 13 top ten finishes.

2015

Ingram re-signed for Speedworks Motorsports in their very heavily revised Toyota Avensis. In race three at Rockingham Ingram secured his first ever podium after a titanic battle with his former mentor Jason Plato and despite swapping the lead on a couple of occasions he finished a very emotional 2nd. This race was voted by the fans as the best race of the season. In the season finale Ingram secured his second podium with another 2nd place.

2016

Ingram re-signed for Speedworks Motorsports in the Toyota Avensis and at the Brands Hatch Indy circuit he qualified on pole for the first race of the season setting a new Touring Car lap record of 47.994 and then went on to secure his first British Touring Car Championship race win. He also secured his first Independents Cup race win.

In the second meeting at Donington Park Ingram secured his second podium of the year with a 3rd place in race one.

Racing with Speedworks again in 2017, he topped the timesheets at pre-season testing with his Toyota. Ingram took second place on the grid for the first race of the 2017 season at Brands Hatch, and went on to win the opening race of the season as he had in 2016. [4] However, in the second race his car twice failed to start, and Ingram would have taken a drive through penalty had the race not been red flagged for a crash involving Jason Plato. Struggling with his car due to the ballast on his car, Ingram finished third behind Gordon Shedden and Rob Collard. He became the first driver to score two race wins in 2017 after winning Race 2 at Donington Park. [5] After Race 3 he was 4 points behind Gordon Shedden in the championship, but Shedden was later excluded from the results leaving Ingram in the championship lead.

2018

Ingram continued to race for Speedworks in 2018, going into the final round at Brands Hatch with an outside chance of winning the championship, starting the day 33 points behind championship leader Colin Turkington. Race 1 saw Turkington extend his championship lead to 36 points. Fighting back in Race 2 Ingram went from 14th to 4th, despite Turkington slipping down the order, it wasn’t enough to claim the overall title. Ingram carried on to win the 2018 Independents’ title for a 2nd year in a row. [6]

2019

Starting a new chapter with Speedworks 2019 saw the birth of the brand new Toyota Corolla and the team changing into a manufacturer. The new car looked fantastic straight out on the box and in only its 6th race Tom took the new car to its 1st of 4 wins that year and this win was in front of 4000 employees from the nearby Toyota factory. Developing this new car was made harder as it was a single car team but the team were more than capable of getting on top of some of the early handling issues and by the end of the season the car was looking a lot more stable.

2020

After a good development year with the new car Ingram stayed with Speedworks for the 7th consecutive year, during the winter the team was very busy developing lots of refinements and the car was a real improvement on last years car. Ingram had 3 wins and a total of 11 podiums with 4 non scores Ingram was still in the title shootout at the season finale.

2021

The 2021 season would see the end of an Ingram's impressive run with Speedworks, with the driver and team parting ways due to conflicting requirements of sponsors. Ingram went on to sign with EXCELR8 Trade Price Cars, driving their Hyundai i30 Fastback. [7]
