MITSUBISHI Motors UK is pleased to announce it will enter a works Group N Evolution VIII MR in the 2005 British Rally Championships, driven by the winner of the 2004 Mitsubishi Ralliart Evolution Challenge. Following a season in the National Rally Championship, MMUK's general manager for Ralliart, Paul Brigden, sees the move to the British series as a positive step for the company's motor sport programme.
"With Brendan Crealey securing the National Production Cup for Mitsubishi, we have achieved our goal for 2004 and we now set our sights on the British Championship Production title. We also hope that this move to the BRC will reflect on the number and quality of competitors registering for the Evolution Challenge." British Rally championship manager, Mark Taylor, is delighted Mitsubishi has chosen to enter the BRC in 2005.
"It is fantastic news for the British Rally Championship that Mitsubishi UK has decided to enter next year. This will be a great boost to the championship, especially the Production Category and we hope it will encourage more manufacturers and professional teams to follow suit. 2005 is shaping up to be an exciting season."
