SMMC News

Scottish Motorsport Marshals Club (SMMC) is the only Club in Scotland that’s dedicated to all four-wheel motorsport disciplines. There are very few motorsport events held north of the border where SMMC is not playing a significant role with either our trained personnel or specialist equipment being involved.

We’re not just close to the action... we’re PART of it!

After two rounds of the Scottish Rally Championship taking place on the black stuff, the Championship moves south and back onto gravel, with the 77th RSAC Scottish Rally, on Saturday 22 July, based in its new home of Dalbeattie. To make the rally safe, as ever, the rally needs a cracking team of Marshals to cover all roles, spectator control, timing, regroups, and passage controls, and if you have never Marshalled before, or know someone who would like to Marshal, then anybody new will be buddied up with an expert Marshal for the day.
