MGCC SHARES WITH EQUIPE FOR 2023
The MG Car Club has unveiled its race calendar for 2023 that has two standalone rounds plus three shared with Equipe Classic Racing.
Equipe’s historic racing categories were a common feature at MGCC race meetings up until 2021, then for 2022 Equipe headlined its own meetings. MGCC – which started running race meetings in 1950 and today is close to unique as a singlemarque club running UK race events – this year ran a six-meeting schedule. It was made up of singleday meetings aside from its MG Live two-day flagship on Silverstone’s Grand Prix circuit.
Filling its timetable became harder for 2023 as MG Metro
Cup left to join the British Racing and Sports Car Club’s line-up.
MGCC next year will have standalone meetings at Oulton Park in May and Cadwell Park in July, and will appear at Equipe’s two-day Brands Hatch and Snetterton events in April and September respectively. The clubs will collaborate for the Silverstone GP meeting.
A number of MG-related anniversaries will be reached in 2023: the MG marque celebrates 100 years, the MG Cup marks its 35th anniversary, the Midget and Sprite Club its 40th anniversary, plus it will be the 90th anniversary of the MG K3.
