Britcar 500
Hi All,
Just got this from Dave Loftus BMMC SW chairman, thought I'd share. Nigel Price asked for the word to be put out....... "The Britcar 500, the Britcar championship’s flagship 6 hour race at Silverstone on October 2nd-4th, will have all of the pzazz and sense of occasion normally associated with the 24 hour event, with the usual funfairs, air displays, and entertainment, plus, in these trying times for our armed forces, a special representation from the Help for Heroes organisation. Unfortunately we are a bit short of Marshals for the event. Action begins on Friday with a full day of qualifying for the support races (including Porsche Club, Toyo Tyres Production, Sports 2000, FPA, and Mazda MX5), culminating in the unique two-hour Britcar night qualifying after dark. There is a full programme of racing on Saturday, finishing with the top-billing Britcar 6-hour race, with 52 cars, including TV star Vicki Butler-Henderson in a Renault Clio, taking the starting flag, waved this year by 2008 hero Andy Neate, at 4pm. The festival continues on Sunday, with Caterham’s, Alfa Romeo’s, Mighty Minis, Mazda’s, Sports 2000, and Dunlop MN Saloons. As usual, the hard-working marshals will be rewarded for their efforts with a Britcar package including T-Shirt, Pens, stickers, badges, and meal/drink vouchers. This event has become a mecca for marshals countrywide, the 6-hour race will be no less an event as the previous – and future – 24 hour festivals, and a chance to renew friendships made over previous years. Support this event, be part of a unique motorsport experience, and ensure the continuation of the Britcar 24 hours in the coming years. If you are able to help us on this event to cover the GP circuit for the Friday to Sunday, or even if you are just able to help on one day or a part of a day please can you contact Penny Norris at Silverstone: Penny.Norris@silverstone.co.uk Thanks and we all look forward to seeing you at the event and welcoming back old friends and meeting new ones. The timetable for the weekend can be seen here: http://britcar24hr.co.uk/cms/e107_pl...Iss_270709.... Drivers should also remember that a day of marshaling is worth a signature on your license so if you fancy a day on the other side of the barrier you will be more than welcome. David Hornsey Britcar Championship Coordinator Britcar Ltd. and Britcar 24hr Ltd. 01252 834377 david.hornsey@britcar24hr.co.uk" |
