GBRM should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
DTV Results

Apologies for the general post; please can someone confirm the year that the HS or HSR DTV Chevettes won the BRC?? I think it was '79, with either Chris Schlater of Pentti Arikkala but I am happy to be proved wrong!!

If there's anyone out there that can post some of the relevant Firenza or Magnum or Chevette results that would be great!!

Yes it was 1979 and it was Pentti Airikkkala. The BRC was then known as the "RAC Open Championship"

Here's a link to confirm this BRC Champions '58-'05

Here's a few more interesting links. (some of them you will probably know about )

Brilliant, thanks. I thought that was the case but needed someone to confirm it for me, had a lot of magazines and people asking me this week and I was never interested in the rally side of DTV really!!

Thanks for the links, I have looked at most already but always good to be reminded!!

As an aside, I don't suppose anyone knows any details on the Nissan rallycars that Bill used to run; was it the 240RSs?
