New Structure for British Drag Racing Hall of Fame

The British Drag Racing Hall of Fame (BDRHoF) has announced a new operating structure to enhance its professionalism and organisational capabilities. It is in line with increased sponsorship and the need to become more involved in events and promotional activity.

Since its launch in 2006, the BDRHoF has evolved around a panel of selectors and this was suffice when its role was limited and its activities few. But it has become clear that more time, effort and expertise is now required in the area of general management, so a BDRHoF Management Group has been created to handle these functions. This group consists of;

Stu Bradbury – Chairman

Bev Bradbury – Secretary and Treasurer

Brian Taylor – Marketing and Commercial

Robin Jackson – Press and Public Relations

Phil Evans – Finance

Phil Cottingham – Events and Social Media

Brian Taylor has stepped down from the BDRHoF Selection Panel to concentrate on BDRHoF Management Group activities. The Panel continues as a separate body, solely responsible for choosing who deserves to be inducted into the BDRHoF and consists of;

Chairman of the BDRHoF Stu Bradbury said,

“It has become very difficult to cover the increased work load during the past 2-3 years and impossible to refer everyday management decisions back for approval by the Selection Panel that only meets face-to-face once a year. So after much thought and discussion we have decided to separate the functions to enable us to further develop the BDRHoF during the next few years. Selection Panel members will get involved with some management functions as and when they can, but the majority of this work will now be handled by the new Management Group who will drive things forward”.
