Shelsley Walsh Contact [email protected] for more details It is the hill where drivers want to win and stand on top of the podium.

Shelsley Walsh is the premier speed hill climb venue in the UK with competition weekends and the opportunity to hire the venue for corporate bookings, photo or filming shoots or anything you need. Hill climbing started at Shelsley Walsh in 1905 when the Midland Automobile Club had to find an alternative venue to Sun Rising Hill near Stratford. Since then, and war years apart, the Club has run hill climbs at Shelsley Walsh ever since, making it the oldest surviving motor sport venue in the world. The hill continues to host the British Hill Climb Championship that sees cars hit 165mph in a thrilling weekend of speed, drama and incredible skill with the opportunity for spectators to get right up close to the action. Shelsley is also available to private hire, photo or film shoots and testing, just get in touch and we can talk about how we can help.

One of the highlight cars at Shelsley Walsh in recent seasons has been the GWR Raptor V8 2 litre of Johnathen Varley that's got two Yamaha R1 5-valve cylinder heads on a common crank case.

To push out 385hp when it weighs a mere 380kgs is just what British Hill Climbing is all about so crank up the sound and hear it sing!
