Welcome to the British Historic Racing Club website

The British Historic Racing Club has organised vintage races for almost 70 years, and full road-ace meetings for over 50 years.

An integral part of the VMCC, BHRC’s foundations are based on those wonderful 1930s 40’s & 50’s race machines, both 2 and 3-wheels, which provide such incredible spectacle and insight into yesteryear for riders and spectators alike. Our commitment will always be to provide competitive events for such machines. Check out the story of those beginnings in the “Our History” section of the website menu.

As the years have passed, so BHR has actively evolved, to encourage wider opportunities for “like-minded folks” to participate.

With our introduction from the 2019 season of pre-1990 “Eighties Sports and "Superbike” Classes, for stock, and street-based specials, BHRC now offers the widest range of race categories covering Pre-1948, 1963, 1973, 1982, and 1990. At the 2023 AGM, a pre-1996 class was agreed.

We invite you to join us on track!

BHRC is all about the opportunity for like-minded folks to have competitive fun “on track, and enjoy the very best paddock atmosphere, and experience the widest array of historic sporting machines!

BHRC: run by enthusiasts, with enthusiasts, for enthusiasts!

British Historic Racing Club is a "non-territorial" section of the VMCC. Become a member HERE

Transponder Brackets

Due to the timekeepers having trouble identifying certain machines on track due to some riders having their transponders on their person and not on their machine, transponder brackets must be fitted to all machines for scrutineering and used for the transponder in the race.

A lack of a transponder bracket on a machine is a tech failure.

Marshals Required!

Can you, or anyone you know, help us marshal for the 2024 season?
Please see our marshaling page to find out more. Marshalling with BHR



*******************************************************************

ALL ENTRANTS ! NOISE TESTING - IMPORTANT ! BE SURE TO NOTE !

It is a longstanding requirement that machines have their Bore and Stroke clearly marked and visible. Not having these clearly marked, and visible to the testers, adds significant wasted time to the overall Noise Testing process , and longer queuing times for everyone.
PLEASE BE SURE TO PRESENT TO NOISE TESTING ONLY WHEN YOUR BORE and STROKE IS CLEARLY MARKED ON YOUR MACHINE. No marking - No Noise Test ... and you will have to come back again when it is !!

BY REQUEST OF OUR NOISE TESTING CREW: A CLEAR STICKER/MARKING STATING STROKE OF YOUR MACHINE WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED "UP TOP" , SAY ON YOUR TANK, FRONT PLATE OR FAIRING WHERE IT CAN BE EASILY READ FROM BESIDE YOUR MACHINE ! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR THIS ASSISTANCE !
