Knockhill To Host Major Rally Spectacular To Celebrate 25th Anniversary Of Colin McRae’s 1995 World Rally Championship – September 26th/27th 2020

Posted: October 28, 2019 9:52 AM

The weekend of 26/27th September 2020 will see all of Scotland and British rallying gearing up for the biggest celebration since Colin McRae became Britain’s first World Rally Champion in 1995.

Next year will commemorate 25 years since their victory celebrations rocked the British rally scene taking it to new world class levels. Centre stage this time is Knockhill Circuit in Fife as the home of Scottish motorsport hosts the second invitational McRae Rally Challenge.

The McRae Rally Challenge will incorporate a huge variety of attractions, combining static displays with dramatic on-stage rally action and additional rally entertainment. Rally event organisers are already working hard on the format for this special invitational event which will feature a single venue rally, part of which may venture off site for the first time to nearby forests (to be confirmed) as well as a Junior rally event.

There will also be a Fans’ Forum preceding the event on the Friday evening, a commemorative dinner on the Saturday evening as well as a galaxy of rally legends all attending to pay tribute to not only Colin’s successes, but his father Jimmy’s career, winning five British Rally Championships and brother Alister’s Scottish, British and Asia Pacific Rally Championship successes too.

The highlight, however, will undoubtedly be a parade of Colin’s cars as organisers are reaching out to owners to gather the biggest collection of competition cars ever seen in Scotland which have been driven by the 1995 World Champion during his meteoric career.

The whole event promises to provide a nerve-jangling, ear-tingling, memory-jogging exercise in rallying nostalgia not to be missed by rally fans across the world.
