And British Production Car Trials Championships

The Motor Sports Association has announced that RAC Motoring Services (RAC) will sponsor the British Autotest and British Production Car Trial Championships in 2005.

Initially for a period of one year, the sponsorship underlines RAC's support for grass roots motor sport and will lead to the re-introduction of class awards that had been withdrawn this year. In addition, the sponsorship will provide both championships with their own website.

"We enjoy a very strong relationship with RAC," explains Kevin Pay, MSA Operations Director. "RAC is a leading member of the membership benefit scheme that provides discounts and offers for MSA licence holders and clubs. This membership programme is expanding all the time and we have recently launched a dedicated members-only area on the MSA website, msauk.org. It's all part of the 'added value' that we provide for all MSA licence holders in addition to the licence itself."

"We see motor sport enthusiasts as one of the most important areas for our business," says Maria Sulman, RAC National Account Manager. "RAC has a tradition of supporting grass roots activity and we look forward to implementing this sponsorship next year."
