The British GT has announced its new title sponsor from 2020:

https://www.britishgt.com/news/571/british-gt-pres...

https://www.sportbusiness.com/news/british-gt-cham...

http://enduranceandgt.co.uk/intelligent-money-beco...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_British_GT_Cham...

I am very excited about this because as well as being a random PHer I also own Intelligent Money (which sponsors the Finance thread on PH too) and this gives me an opportunity to merge two passions.

There will be more announcements over the coming weeks...

As I've already said, well done, this is great news. No wonder your chuffed.

Hopefully bump into you at a race this year.

Great to see this really strong championship being so well supported. I'm sure that you'll get plenty of media coverage (tv highlights are really good already).

Thanks guys. It is incredible to be doing something that in my youth seemed so far out of reach and untouchable.

There is more news to come, I will update as I can.

I am just happy to be able to share this and am very grateful that I was in a position to do this!

Cheers

My interest in the BTCC has decreased in recent years but my interest in British GTs will always remain high.
Lamborghini and Ferrari are way better to watch than a Civic or Astra.

I'm ashamed that I didn't go to a BGT race last year.
Need to put that right in 2020.

You might want to look into how much you are paying for your own pension. We charge from 0.57% a year (that is £5.70 a year for every £1,000)

In any event, I paid for this personally.

Congratulations, we've thoroughly enjoyed our trip down to Oulton Park from Scotland for the season opener over the last 3 or 4 years. It's a great series.

Good news for IM,well done Julian and team,

Got to be a good advert for the company, just looked at the entrant list and noticed only 14 cars entered so far , hopefully more will join later.

Also noticed that young lad kelvin Fletcher is racing a Bentley, I met him once of all places at Silverstone on the pit wall, he comes across as a very nice down to earth chap.

My missus didn't believe I had met him and being an old fart I am not really in to the whole selfie with celebs thing biggrin
