PistonHeads Sporting Tour North, 6th July

[BenLowden]

We're excited to announce that the PistonHeads Sporting Tour North is now open for booking. The event will take place across Derbyshire, Cheshire and Staffordshire on July 6th with timed tests at Oulton Park.

The one-day tour will take in 170 miles of beautiful country roads, with lunch and two timed tests at our chosen MSV circuit. Each competitor will have a start time, but as most of the driving takes place on public roads, there will be no other timing involved other than the tests. You'll make your way to check points, where marshals will stamp your route book before setting off on the next stage of the rally.

Your co-driver will need to brush up on their map reading skills, as you'll navigate the route in true rally team style using a Tulip Road Book with no sat nav in sight. The book plots out the distances, directions and junctions you need to navigate throughout the route, making for a refreshing change from staring at a screen. Seasoned motorsport competitors are welcome but this event is perfect for novices who want to take their first step onto the motorsport ladder.

Following feedback on our previous events, the road sections are longer with less minor highways, and we are laying on bigger auto tests at MSV circuits. The cost is £180 per car and we recommend a minimum of two people per team.

Our base for the start and finish will be the Ibis Chesterfield North with the auto tests using the tarmac rally stage at Oulton Park. The event is authorised and permitted by Motorsport UK.
