When: Saturday, July 14, 8.30am-5.30pm
To commemorate the 80th anniversary of Prescott Hill Climb, the Gloucestershire venue will celebrate the landmark occasion with a special reunion of former hill record holders.
The July celebration centres on gathering together as many former hill records holders as possible.
The list of confirmed attendees reads like a who's who of hillclimbing: from 1960s pacesetter and multiple Hillclimb champion David Boshier-Jones, Martyn Griffiths, David Grace, David Franklin, Alister Douglas-Osborn to Chris Cramer who will be competing in the Gould 84 and current reigning six-time Hillclimb. Champion Scott Moran is also competing in a Gould.
Many of the racers will be reunited with suitable cars from their era, either for a parade or for full-on competition.
The event will feature a strong field of 150 cars on track, including a special class for Bugattis.
The event is supported by the Bugatti Owners' Club Members Handicap including saloons, sports cars and single seaters.
In addition, there will be a round of the Bugatti Owners' Club Aldon Classic Championship and New Barn Cheltenham Land Rover Specialists "B" Licence Championship.
The Prescott 80th Anniversary will be a relaxed day of competition featuring a full racing paddock and some of the most delectable Bugattis in the UK.
The first car will be on the track at approximately 8.30am. Scheduled finish time 5.30pm.
