Scotland's capital city of Edinburgh will host a spectacular Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship city centre road show on Thursday August 31, it has been confirmed.
The event, called 'British Touring Cars Live: Edinburgh' will fall in the final week of the city's culturally world famous International Festival period, just days before the BTCC's only race meeting of the year in Scotland, at the nearby Knockhill circuit on September 3.
"The BTCC is very excited and honoured to be coming to Edinburgh for what I am certain will be a major highlight of our 2006 season," said BTCC series director Alan Gow. "This will be a fabulous way to signal the arrival of the BTCC in Scotland and in terms of exposure will benefit greatly Edinburgh, the BTCC and our teams and partners all of whom are hugely looking forward to this event.
The City of Edinburgh Council should be applauded for its enthusiasm, forward thinking and the very professional conduct it has displayed in helping the BTCC put together what is a very large scale and special event. :good:
