Tim Floc'h (born 18 September 1950 in Nantes, France) is a French former racing driver, best known as the first-ever race winner of the Dywa Grand Prix Series. He is not related to former NASCAR driver Tim Flock or his relatives.

Born and raised in Brittany, Floc'h wasn't really interested in motorsports until he got his first car, a blue Renault 16, in 1972. Over the next few years, he began racing on a club level and eventually built a solid reputation among the street racing community in northern France. It was reported that he used half of his winnings to secure a seat in the Dywa series.

His career kicked off to a perfect start as he secured pole position and the race win in the first round of the 1978 season in Enna-Pergusa.
