Sport - Motorsport: Archer and Connor ready to rally for new campaign
RALLY crew Richard Archer and John Connor eagerly anticipate the start of this year’s NGK British Rally Championship Challenge (BRCC) on Rally Sunseeker in Bournemouth.
Archer, from Downham, has massive experience and is a multiple event winner, whilst co-driver Connor from Halesowen is a former BRCC champion.
The BRCC follows the International British Rally Championship across six events in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
The Wizard Motorsport/ Pirelli Tyres and Hayburn Rock Associates Ltd supported, ex-works Super 1600 Opel Corsa has been fully rebuilt over the winter.
The crew can’t wait to start the season in the Dorset-based event.
Archer said: “This is a very busy time for the team in the lead-up to the start of the season.
“The car has been fully rebuilt and we now are itching to get under way.
“I have won two of these rallies outright, including the Scottish round three times.
“I hope that this year we can keep it all together and win the £7,000 prize fund towards next year’s International British Rally Championship.”
The team’s season gets under way on Friday, February 24.
