Only two weeks left to enter the 65th Anniversary Measham Rally 2015

Tuesday 23 December 2014

Next month will see the Vintage Sports-Car Club celebrate an incredible 65th Anniversary of the famous Measham Night Rally, based next year in the idyllic surroundings of Thirsk in North Yorkshire on 17/18 January. A reminder that Entries will close on Tuesday 6 January so don’t delay and submit yours now for this seminal Club event.
An event for the true Vintage motorsports enthusiast, it was first run in 1950 and remains one of the most important events of the VSCC calendar. Always organised by enthusiasts for enthusiasts, a finish, let alone an award, on any Measham is a major accomplishment of which any motorsports competitor can be proud.

We are delighted that the very experienced team of John Potter and Brian Hughes, assisted by Jonathan and Sue Swales, will be organising the 2015 edition and are keen to maintain the time-honoured traditions of this blue-ribband event. 

The start, halfway and finish will be at Thirsk Auction Mart, an excellent venue, easy to get to with dual carriageway all the way from the south, and with ample trailer parking, undercover scrutineering and fettling facilities and plenty of plotting room.

Drinks and hot food will be available from the Gavel Bar on site, whilst there are also some great village pubs with rooms and B&Bs in the local area. The fast class will follow a route of 180 miles, slightly shorter for the slower cars, whilst instructions will, as always, be by map reference only, the emphasis being on accurate timekeeping.
