NOTE CHANGE OF VENUES

Radnor Forest 16th-17th April

This superb venue starts the championship off with an extended course.  Frighteningly fast tracks, large drops and slippery firebreaks typify this vast site, a long time favourite of WRC drivers! 

Ellesmere, Shrops 4th-5th June

Now a championship regular this site is a mixture of fast open fields, gravel tracks and more technical woodland sections. A summer date won’t guarantee the weather, but the prospect of dry conditions will make this a very fast event.

Scotland 2nd-3rd July

An excellent and vast new site in the South West of Scotland within easy reach of the M6 provides another completely new challenge to the 2004 championship.

Driffield 10th-11th September

A classic all weather site rounds off the championship in style. Expect plenty of water and loads of "air" as the competitors leap and splash their way around this dramatic "lunar" landscape.

An all time favourite, which has seen plenty of historical battles both in rallying and in off road competition.  Sweet Lamb provides the perfect closing event.

The Goodyear British Off Road Championship relies upon a whole host of volunteers and more than anyone else we rely on our marshals.

Marshals are a group of people who come out to ensure the safe running of events.  They deal with everything from setting out the course to spectator control.

Marshalling is great fun - there is the opportunity to do some off roading on some of the best land in the country for free and helping out with the event in an official capacity is immensely rewarding.  What is more there is the opportunity to meet up with other like minded people and have a great time.

All the Goodyear British Off Road Championship rounds are two day events (not including set-up) so there is always plenty of time for a bit of socialising as well as officiating.

All marshals who register for the Goodyear British Off Road Championship will receive a set of official British Championship "Marshal" stickers for their vehicle, and there will be lots of other benefits throughout the year including discount schemes and marshals awards.

Marshal and officials training

Together with main sponsors Goodyear, and with support from Ford SVO the Goodyear British Off Road Championship are intending to hold a series of marshal and officials training days.  Details are yet to be finalised but the days are aimed at those who might be interested in marshalling on this year's Goodyear British Off Road Championship. The training will specialise in marshalling for the championship, but is nonetheless open to everyone and the skills acquired will be useful in other branches of the sport.  For more details please contact Terry Day on 01635 864833 or email marshals@britishoffroadchampionship.co.uk

The course will be targeted towards both those who are new to the sport and have never marshalled before, as well as those experienced marshals and recovery crews.
