Nova Motorsport, which is in its second year of sponsoring the British Hillclimb Championship (BHC), would like to update competitors on amendments to the timeline for the anticipated supply of Avon and Nova Hillclimb tyres.
Â
We hope you are having a good season in the 2025 BHC Presented by Nova Motorsport.
Â
We understand how important the supply of Avon’s multi-championship-winning tyre products is to all competitors, which is why we wanted to let you know of amendments to the timeline for anticipated product supply at the earliest opportunity.
Â
As you will know from our previous correspondence, and from conversations with the Nova Motorsport team at events through the first half of the season, we had hoped to begin production of BHC-specification tyres at our factory in Palmeira in July, with stock availability anticipated at Shelsley Walsh on the 9th and 10th August.
Â
Regrettably, this will no longer be the case. The setback is due to short-term delays in the upgrade of key equipment at our factory in Palmeira. Our sincere apologies for the inconvenience, but, unfortunately, this is a factor that is out of our control. We want to stress that it remains our intention to produce, test and run British specification Hillclimb tyres during the 2025 Hillclimb season.
Â
We know that this is disappointing news for the competitors and indeed for us as the manufacturer. Please rest assured, our mission of supplying BHC competitors with Avon Motorsport tyres built to the highest performance and quality standards remains absolute, and is a core pillar of our business. Nova Motorsport is fully committed to Hillclimbing in the UK and internationally, with a key European specification tyre confirmed for launch in August, underlining our significant investment in the sport.
Â
As soon as we have an update on BHC tyre production and supply schedules, we will notify you immediately.
Â
Thank you for your patience in this matter.
Â
Yours sincerely,
Â
James Weekley
Nova Motorsport Commercial Director
