2008 Events

In 2008 we contested the UK Changes Midland Hillclimb Championship (M) and the Power-Mec Hillclimb Leaders Championship (L).

The UK Changes Midland Hillclimb Championship was a 9 round series split into 3 events each at Loton Park, Prescott and Shelsley Walsh, three of the most scenic and historic hill climb venues in the world.

The Power-Mec Hillclimb Leaders Championship comprised 13 rounds, including events at Loton Park, Prescott and Shelsley Walsh at the same time as some of the UK Changes Midland Hillclimb Championship, and also at Wiscombe Park (Devon), Gurston Down (Wiltshire), Harewood (Yorkshire), Barbon Manor (Cumbria) and Doune (Perthshire). We elected to omit the events at Barbon and Doune, and were unfortunately also unable to take part at Harewood.
