Hodgetts debuted in the British Touring Car Championship in 1980. His first overall podium place came in 1981 when he came second. He was consistent in the top five after that, mostly driving for the works Toyota team. He came fourth in 1983, fifth in 1984, second in 1985, before winning the series in 1986 and 1987 at the wheel of a Group C Toyota Corolla. The 1988 season was not a success. The new Group A Toyota Supra needed a lot of development, and only a handful of good results were gained. His last race in the BTCC was in 1990. That season he drove for the works Vauxhall team, helping to fettle the new Vauxhall Cavalier. Towards the end of the year he switched to a Ford Sierra, before calling time on his BTCC career.
