Event | Comments Off on Silverstone in March

Silverstone in March

While the Club is aware that other Clubs have cancelled their race meetings scheduled for 20th/21st March, (due possibly to contractual requirements), at present MGCC are still extremely hopeful that conditions will exist where we can safely run a meeting on that weekend and we are planning to take a decision around February 1st as detailed before.

We already have an excellent response to the entry form that we have despatched and can only hope and pray that matters improve in the country to allow the meeting to proceed.

In the meantime we will be pleased to receive your entry form, no money will be taken and there is a full money back guarantee.

At present we can say no more but undertake to communicate around February 1st when matters may be clearer and when Motorsport UK may be in a better place to provide guidance as to permits and authorisation.

Sincerely

Ron Gammons on behalf of the MGCC Race Planning Group

MG Car Club Motor Racing 2021

We have all been looking forward with eager anticipation to a full year of our excellent Club motorsport, but all of you will be aware of the present situation regarding the present lockdown announced just yesterday, which bans any unessential travel and which will preclude any motorsport for the time being.

The present lockdown is forecast to be, at the least, until mid-February. Nobody is clear as of yet as to what will happen then.

But we have to put in place some outline plans that would enable us to run event’s should salvation occur!

The Club’s 2021 race programme is scheduled to start on 20th March at Silverstone on the National Circuit.

If it is at all possible we intend to run that event, but obviously at some point a go/no go decision will have to be taken.

At present we see the latest that decision date  can be as being 1st February, seven weeks before the event.

Therefore in order to even out the workload we intend in the next few days to issue the entry forms for the event and would seek their completion and return.

We will of course keep you advised as to the decisions just as soon as they are taken. Please do not contact the office, we will circulate information just as soon as we can!

In the meantime please look out for the entry forms and return them completed to the office.

Spring is approaching and an excellent season at some great circuits is approaching fast!

Best wishes to all for 2021

Ron Gammons on behalf of the Race Planning Group
