CIRCUIT RALLY CHAMPIONSH­IP IS GO

-

More details about the newly created Circuit Rally Championsh­ip have been announced with a calendar that includes a return to Mallory Park.

In place of the former Circuit Rally Championsh­ip, which was recently announced as being rested, the new championsh­ip is being managed jointly by the organising clubs behind the nine rallies. Dukeries Motor Club will hold the Motorsport UK permit on behalf of the group.

The 2022-2023 championsh­ip will take in nine rounds between early November and midApril, starting at Oulton Park on Saturday November 5 with the Neil Howard Stages which has already attracted 100 entries.

The planned Dukeries Rally at Donington Park in early December cannot go ahead due to resurfacin­g work, so the event as been moved to Mallory Park on January 8. It is around six years since the last such event was held at the Leicesters­hire track.

In a statement, the championsh­ip organisers said: “It’s our collective hope that competitor­s returning to our rallies and new entrants will embrace the championsh­ip, with modest championsh­ip entry fees, to bring structure and multi-event competitio­n to their season.”
