750 Motor Club – Birkett Relay

750 Motor Club – Birkett Relay at Silverstone Circuit

24 Oct 2020

The UK’s largest annual motor race will return to Silverstone for six hours of unbeatable racing on the full Grand Prix circuit.

Each team has to lap the circuit as many times as they can within the six hours, with only one of their team cars running at any one time. As one comes into the pit lane, the next can be dispatched out onto the circuit.

Entry is restricted to sports and saloon cars; this means an eclectic mix of vehicles can be on track, everything from 1960’s MG Midgets to BMW M3’s, hordes of Caterham derivatives and modern sports racing cars such as Radical’s.

2016 saw a record breaking team entry to the 66th running of the Birkett, with over 350 cars taking part. 2020 promises to be just as exciting, with teams of four to six drivers battling it out for both outright and handicapped honours over the six hour event.
