GURSTON Down hosts the first of two visits of the British Hill Climb Championship this bank holiday weekend.

Both the Avon Tyres/TTC Group MSA British Hill Climb Championship and the Avon Tyres / TTC Group MSA Hill Climb Leaders Championship will be competing.

More than 130 drivers will appear in standard road cars, specially prepared hill climb cars and spectacularly fast-sport and single-seat racing cars.

All of them will pit their wits against each other, and the clock, on the twisty course at Wiltshire's famous Speed Hill Climb Venue.

History will be made as a world first for a hydrogen fuel cell car - Toyota Mirai - to appear in a Speed Hill Climb event.

Saturday is practice day with competitive action on Sunday.

Admission is £10 for adults Sunday (£6 on Saturday), accompanied under-15s free.
