Second-generation British motor sport competitors, brothers Oliver and Philip Hopkins, will both compete in Sol Rally Barbados 2015 (May 29-31), when the Barbados Rally Club (BRC) celebrates the 25th Anniversary of its first International All-Stage Rally . . . but they will not be sitting in the same car.

The Barbados Karting Association’s 2014 Frutee Championship Awards Presentation in January was the first such occasion hosted in the new Bushy Park Barbados Clubhouse.

Nicholas Gill, winner of the Yamaha 310 Premier Class and BKA Champion Driver for 2014, was just one of nearly 40 competitors and volunteers whose achievements or commitment to the sport were recognised, while BKA Chairman Stephen Mayers thanked the Club’s for their continued support.

Scotland’s Brian Watson and Caroline Will, who made their Caribbean rallying debut in 2014, enjoyed their first visit so much that they will be back for more when the Barbados Rally Club (BRC) celebrates the 25th Anniversary of its first International All-Stage Rally at Sol Rally Barbados 2015 (May 29-31).

Members of the Barbados Rally Club (BRC) will not be the only ones celebrating when Sol Rally Barbados 2015 (May 30/31) marks the 25th Anniversary of the Club’s premier event. Having followed it for more than 10 years, British driver Marcus Tinsley will finally get to compete this year, a 30th birthday present to himself.
