The 2010 BHRC TV deal - notes for competitors

Flyer from Alistair Miller

As you now know, all eight rounds of the Dunlop/Wonago.com MSA British Historic Rally Championship will be televised in 2010, with dedicated hour-long programmes on Motors TV following each round.

This has been made possible by the commitment of Acceleration Television and Video, the company headed by David Winstanley. The BHRC Championship Committee and the HRCR is providing additional support. There will be no media club to pay into, so it is an exceptionally good deal for the BHRC and its registered contenders.

However, we all need to help make this work for Acceleration so that the deal can be extended beyond 2010. There are several ways in which competitors can support this project:

1) Backing for the TV package is coming from 'My Life Story', a new business venture from Acceleration Television offering any individual the chance to have a DVD made of their life story, with prices starting from around £800. Please support this if possible and make other people aware of the service. More details are available at: www.mylifestorydvd.co.uk 

2) DVDs of previous event coverage will be available for sale at each event. Please support this as much as possible.

3) Acceleration can offer personalised DVDs and photobooks from either individual events or the whole season. Please contact David Winstanley direct about this. The website is www.acceleration.co.uk and the office number is 01678 530744

4) There is scope for mini-features within the programmes looking at companies with links to historic rallying. This may suit preparation companies, component suppliers and similar. Once again, please discuss this direct with David.
