Brick & Steel Border Counties Rally 6 May 2023

The Border Counties formally launches its return in 2023, this year on Saturday 6th May.  We are sharing the date with the Coronation of King Charles III, but I am sure he won't mind!! 

Guidance from MotorsportUK is that we can run as normal.

Once again, The Border Counties Rally is jointly promoted by Hawick and Border Car Club and Berwick and District Motor Club.  We also have the welcomed support of long-term sponsor, Glasgow based building firm Brick and Steel Construction.

The picturesque market town of Jedburgh will play host to the traditional rally start ceremony before competitors head into the forests and HQ returns to Jedburgh Town Hall.

Competitors will be contesting a number of championships this year, round 3 of the MRF Tyres BTRDA Rally Series, round 3 of the returning SG Petch ANECCC Rally Championship and round 3 of the HRCR Motoscope Northern Historic Championship.

Fans will be in for a treat, with ample opportunity to watch the action in the forests as well as the chance to get up close to the cars at the Jedburgh start and the event service area at the mid-point of the rally in the nearby St Boswells.  A traditional Scottish welcome will greet crews as they reach the finish ceremony which will also take place under the gaze of Jedburgh Abbey where the winners will celebrate victory with the traditional champagne spray.

We look forward to releasing more details as when things are confirmed.
