Sponsoring the HGPCA
Rapidly-growing interest in, and enthusiasm for, historic motor racing is leading to more coverage of the sport in the national and international newspapers, specialist motor sport press and on television channels in Europe and across the world. This brings increasing awareness and prestige for any sponsoring company in partnership with us.
The HGPCA is in a unique position to tailor existing and special events to the particular requirements of the sponsor, not only to provide branding and exposure, but also to open up new business opportunities, support existing clients or assist internal corporate management activities.
This is participation at the highest level of historic motor sport and offers a unique opportunity to meet and network with other like-minded and successful business people in a relaxed and private atmosphere.

Damon Hill, Former World Champion
A very big crowd turned out to see the Historic Grand Prix Cars Association in action... and they were not disappointed. There was action galore in the race.
The Irish Times, Phoenix Park, Dublin
There was some truly inspired driving and, as always, it was a privilege to see old racing cars driven as they were in their heyday.
