Just over a week to go! Rallye Prescott 2024 is set to be a big one as we get together to celebrate rally cars of all ages, and especially the 40th anniversary of the 6R4 rally car.
Who and what to look out for -
The ‘fastest time in darkness’ record of 46.76 set in 2022 is still held by Scott Moran. Ride on board with Scott as he sets the record run. Scott is at the wheel of the Skoda R5 again this year, can he hold onto the record? Or will it finally fall this year! The Skoda R5 will be a double drive with his father Roger, the former British Hillclimb champion.
Other previous class winners will be returning such as Simon Braithwaite in his Ford Escort RS, fighting to stay top of class H4. Also defending their class win titles are Tom Weaver in his Citroen Saxo, Tim Porter rallying his Darrian T90 and Peter Hedges in his Ford Escort MK2 machine.
Special guests from Slowly Sideways UK will be with us again, bringing yet another variety of cars for demo runs as well as competitive runs.
David Llewellin, who drove the 6R4 to its first international rally win on the 1986 Circuit of Ireland, will be taking the 6R4 owned by historic rally frontrunner Nick Elliott up the Hill in a demonstration run.
Steve Benton’s 2001 Ford Focus is a historically important machine. Once driven by World Champion and much-loved rally driver Colin McRae. The car was freshly built for round 7 of the World Rally Championship held at the Acropolis Rally, the Ford Focus took Colin and Nicky Grist to a maiden win.
The iconic ‘Orange Box’ Mini of Andy Harrison became famous in the 1960s when it was driven by Roy Maple for three years. Look out for Andy as he will be looking to take a trophy.
We are also excited to welcome BILSTEIN who manufacture high quality shock absorbers and suspension systems. Their exhibition lorry will be stationed all day at Rallye Prescott.
