Around a month had passed since the Malcolm Wilson Rally in the Lake District had raised the curtains on the 2024 Protyres BTRDA Rally series in March. This time around the series would travel to Mid-Wales for the second round of the Championship, the Rallynuts Severn Valley Stages Rally, where world-class gravel stages would await the crews.
Organised by the Midland Manner Motor Club, the 2024 edition of the Severn Valley Stages rally would host the second round of the Motorsport UK ProBite British Rally Championship for the first time in its long-standing history.
The 2024 East Riding Stages, organised by the hard-working team at the Beverley & District Motor Club would kick off closed road stage rallying for the year. Conveniently hosted a little under a month before the start of both the British Rally Championship and the Protyre Asphalt series. The fast and flowing ‘Ypres-like’ stages of North East Yorkshire would offer crews a perfect opportunity to gain valuable seat time after the winter break, aiding in their preparation for the season ahead.
On a surprisingly mild morning in January, the rally season officially commenced at the Royal Welsh Showground based just outside the market town of Builth Wells. The North Road Garage Toyota Showground Stages would provide both UK rally fans & competitors with their first event of 2024. The event had been organised and reimagined by the Newton & District Automobile Club and proudly sponsored by the Pritchard family’s North Road Garage Toyota.
The MRF Tyres BTRDA Rally Series remained in the North for the fourth round of its 2023 Championship season at the Kielder Forest Rally. The Cumberland Sporting Car Club laid on a compact one-day event, utilising three (repeated) tests in the southern part of the legendary Kielder Forest Complex.
The MRF Tyres BTRDA Rally Series makes a welcomed return to the national stage rallying calendar on March 11th. The Malcolm Wilson Stages Rally will once again take up the honours as the season curtain raiser for the 2023 Championships, where an exciting eight-round calendar is on the cards.
