Several major names from the top ranks of British karting have already confirmed their participation in the newly branded 2004 Hill House Hammond/Renault Super One MSA British Championships.

Across the three classes jointly sponsored by Renault UK and Hill House Hammond – Formula A, Formula JICA and Formula ICA – there are a total of 46 karters now registered with many more confirmations expected over the coming weeks.

In the blue riband Formula A category there’s fantastic news as reigning champion Gary Catt will be joined in the thick of the action once again by series runner-up Mark Litchfield and 2002 title-winning arch-rival Mark Rochford.

Front-running aces David Gregory, Benjy Russell, and Alexander Sims will also line-up alongside ex-Formula ICA competitor Jeremy Metcalfe, reigning ICA Champion Jason Edgar and ex-Formula JICA star James McCarthy.

Formula ICA, meanwhile, will see a whole host of star names graduating from the Formula JICA class including reigning Formula JICA Champion Riki Christodoulou, Freddie Martin-Dye and Jon Lancaster. Formula ICA Vice-Champion Danny Cruttenden will make his return to the category alongside fellow regulars Chris Chubb, Sam Hill and John Joe Walsh.

Daniel Rowbottom, Tom Armour, Garry Findlay and Andrew Maybin have all confirmed their respective returns to Formula JICA and will be joined in the category by Craig Copeland and Adam Christodoulou, cousin of 2003 JICA Champion Riki.
