2011 REIS MSA Asphalt Rally Championship

REIS MSA Asphalt championship set for TV coverage

Posted: February 4, 2011 9:14 PM

After sparking up interest in TV Coverage of the REIS MSA Asphalt Championship with coverage of the first few rounds in 2010, MC-Video have now finalised a deal that will see all 9 rounds covered in 2011.

Championship backers REIS, along with a small number of other sponsors ( who will be thanked soon ) have seen the value that TV coverage can bring to the championship and have made it possible for an entire season of 9 - hour long event reviews, plus an end of season review show in December.

TV Coverage this year will only feature crews Registered for the REIS MSA Asphalt Championship, so please visit the championship site for details on how to register

Coverage of the Championship can be seen on Motors TV, and you can find all the dates and times for the first showing of each round on the Special Stage Website www.specialstage.co.uk

As well as covering the REIS MSA Asphalt Championship, MC-Video will continue to cover the Britpart British Cross Country Championship for inclusion in the ‘Special Stage’ review shows, along with coverage of the Kick Energy Pirelli Junior 1000 Rally Championship and a selection of other events up and down the UK.

Kicking off the coverage on Wednesday 9th March will be a look ahead at what’s to come this season, as well as coverage of the Chris Kelly Memorial Rally from the Isle of Man, and the following week on Wednesday 16th March will be coverage of the 2011 GMF Wyedean Rally from Chepstow

‘MILLINGTON ESCORT CHALLENGE’ TAKES TO THE ROAD

Posted: January 28, 2011 11:30 AM

The organisers of the REIS MSA Asphalt Rally Championship are pleased to announce that the ‘Millington Escort Challenge’ will run on all nine rounds of the 2011 calendar.

The brainchild of Roy Millington, of Millington Racing Engines, the Challenge will cater for crews in front-engined, rear-wheel drive Mk1-Mk5 Ford Escorts up to 2.5 litres – and, as long as the engines conform to 2011 MSA Blue Book regulations, they don’t have to be Millingtons! The field will be split into two classes - up to and including 2100cc and 2101cc up to and including 2500cc – and there will be both on-event and end-of-season awards for successful crews.

Welcoming the initiative, REIS Championship Coordinator Andrew Haill believes that Simon Mauger’s success in 2010 is proof positive of just what can be done at this level in a well-driven Escort.
“I’ve no doubt that Simon’s 2nd overall in the MSA Championship and outright BTRDA Asphalt Challenge win has given hope to any number of drivers of similar cars and we look forward to seeing them out on events this year.”

2011 REIS MSA Asphalt Rally Championship

Posted: November 5, 2010 1:00 PM

Having secured the permit to run the MSA Asphalt Rally Championship for the next three years, the BTRDA (British Trials & Rally Drivers’ Association) is delighted to announce that REIS have confirmed their intention to remain as headline sponsor for 2011.

Following the amalgamation of the MSA Asphalt Championship & BTRDA Asphalt Rally Series at the start of this year, the 2011 calendar retains the wide range of events that has proved so popular. Army ranges, closed public roads on the mainland, the Isle of Man and in Southern Ireland, plus the unique special stage venues provided by the Rally of the Midlands and the Patriot Stages at Caerwent all go to provide something for everyone. With each competitor’s best 5 scores from the total of nine events to count towards their final tally, the calendar also caters for all budgets.

Commenting on REIS’ plans for 2011, General Manager Phil Barnard said
‘We have a long-standing relationship with the BTRDA and our involvement with the MSA Asphalt Rally Championship has proved to be mutually beneficial. It is, therefore, pleasing to be able to continue our sponsorship for a fourth year.’
