MG Car Club Announces Half-Price Incentive To Young Racers

London, March 23, 2009: Under 21 racers will benefit from a half-price race entry scheme designed to make racing more affordable for the cash-strapped youth. Anyone under 21 on 1 January 2009 will benefit from half-price race entry fees at all MG Car Club race meetings in 2009.

The first MG Car Club race will be full price and the entrant/driver will receive a half-price voucher against their next entry. Each subsequent entry will receive a similar, half-price voucher with the last race of the year being free, provided of course that they have the voucher from their previous race.

Ron Gammons, Clerk of the Course for the MG Car Club said: "In 2008, we had a 17-year-old winner of our MG Trophy Championship, which has encouraged us to provide this financial incentive to bring more youngsters into the sport. To race in our championships, the minimum age is 16 years old, provided they have passed the ARDS test."
