Shelsley Walsh is the oldest motorsport venue in the world that is still used.
103 years of speed hill climbing will continue in the Teme Valley, Worcestershire during the 2008 season with six competitive weekends.
The future of the hill has been secured, but a great deal of work is underway renovating buildings at the base of the hill for the use of competitors, spectators and visitors alike.
If you haven’t bought a yard of tarmac, or entered the Monthly Draw, then do so through the links above. You will be preserving Motor Sport history.
We look forward to seeing you at Shelsley during the 2008 season.
