Representatives from Motorsport UK’s StreetCar programme visited both Rugby College and Evesham College, with the support of the Vintage Sports-Car Club (VSCC) last month, showcasing the opportunities available within motorsport to around 40 students enrolled on motor vehicle related courses.

The StreetCar programme enables anyone to get behind the wheel of their car and enjoy grassroots motorsport, by joining an event at their local motor club or through volunteering opportunities within motorsport, providing real life experience of events management and logistics.

Tania Brown and Ethan Harris from VSCC presented the opportunities available within their club to students from Evesham College, while also providing a variety of vehicles during the event.

Elise Whyte, StreetCar Club Development Coordinator, comments, “It’s incredibly rewarding being able to engage with colleges and reach out to students – while hopefully inspiring them to get involved in StreetCar. The programme showcases how easy and affordable it is to get involved in grassroots motorsport, no matter how early you are in your career.”
