Serious Fun in 2017 !
The BTRDA are pleased to provide more information about the 2017 RAVENOL BTRDA Rally Series and confirm that championship registration is now open.

The 2017 calendar includes eight one-day events, starting with the Cambrian Rally in February and finishing with the Trackrod Forest Stages in North Yorkshire on 30th September.
