Recognising that the British Rally Championship needs a true starter category, the BRC Formula 2000 series has been introduced for 2005.

"This new Formula 2000 Championship will be for competitors who want to test and develop their skills on the first rung of the International and BRC ladder but in an affordable and controlled category", confirmed Mark Taylor, Championship Manager. "With one firm eye on keeping costs down the new Championship will be open to homologated Group N front wheel drive cars up to 2000cc and one make car category cars from the Fiat Stilo Cup and Peugeot 206 series."
Representatives from the relevant categories will answer questions and show competitors and teams around rally cars that are eligible to compete in the series, including the Fiat Stilo, Ford Focus, Peugeot 206 Gti180, MG ZR and Renault Clio Sport.
"We are delighted that David Sutton has kindly given us the opportunity to launch the new BRC Formula 2000 Rally Championship in such prestigious surroundings, concluded Mark Taylor.
