HSCC PINPOINTS MID-JULY RACE RETURN WITH LEGENDS OF BRANDS HATCH SHOWDOWN
The Historic Sports Car Club is planning to start the historic racing season at the Legends of Brands Hatch Super Prix meeting on July 11-12.
The meeting remains subject to government guidelines and Motorsport UK approval, and the HSCC is now encouraging competitors to place entries. No money will be taken until the entries’ closing date and full refunds will be given in the event of cancellation or withdrawl.
HSCC CEO Andy Deecrowne said: “Running an event takes a lot of preparation so we are currently planning for the resumption of motorsport in July. We will all have a duty to ensure that when events do start, they are run as safely as possible. Because of potential difficulties with accommodation, the weekend timetable is being replanned to try to make the event one-day for as many competitors as possible.”
In line with the co-operation amid the coronavirus difficulties between the HSCC, Masters Historic Racing and Frenchbased HVM Racing, an invitation is open to all competitors with suitable cars to take part in the event.
The HSCC is also extending an invitation to compete to anyone with a relevant car. “Races like our Thundersports, Guards Trophy, Road Sports and Historic Touring Cars are all suitable for drivers who usually race in other series across Europe,” said Dee-crowne. “Travelling out of the UK will be an issue in the short-term, so here is a chance to race at home.”
