Bill Gwynne Rallyschool International Launches Tarmac School

 Bill Gwynne Rallyschool International is launching a dedicated Tarmac School for 2013. The School’s owner Bill Gwynne has been developing the school after recently running successful events at the Blyton Park Driving Centre.  The courses are open to drivers at all levels of experience, from Juniors to competitors looking to shave a second or two off their stage times. 

“I’ve run tarmac coaching courses for individual drivers at a variety of venues for many years.  I’m delighted to now be working with Richard Usher at Blyton Park Driving Centre to offer the first dedicated tarmac Rallyschool in the UK.  The circuit is excellent with a range of route options and plenty of run off to allow us to explore the limits of car and driver.”
