The Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb is going back to its routes. Always an innovator, the Midland Automobile Club are inviting car manufacturers to enter British Racing Green with five new classes aimed at modern cars on the 3rd and 4th June.

With the advent of new technology and new forms of power, Shelsley Walsh Hill Climb has always been a place of firsts throughout its 112 years. These new classes have been created to embrace these new revolutions.

Manufacturers wishing to enter the event are being invited to do timed runs or demonstration runs, giving them the opportunity to showcase their latest products.

The largest class created is for electric vehicles, sub divided into four categories
1. Battery Electric Vehicles (Bev)
2. Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (Phev)
3. Hybrid Electric Vehicles (Hev)
4. Fuel-Cell Electric Vehicles (Fcev)

There will also be a class for Autonomous vehicles and for Sports Utility Vehicles (SUV).

Following on from last year when the Audi RS6 Avant set a time on the hill, there will also be a class for high powered estate cars with manufacturers being encouraged to have a journalist in the hot seat.

The final class will be for Hybrid Hypercars and Hypercars. These ultimate powerful cars with around 1,000bhp will be given the opportunity to go down in history with the very first timed runs for such a car, alternatively a demonstration run is also being offered.

With significant interest and a number of cars already committed, British Racing Green is looking to create some new history.
