Erdős Problem 655: General Position

Let $x_1,\ldots,x_n\in \mathbb{R}^2$ be such that no circle whose centre is one of the $x_i$ contains three other points. Are there at least$(1+c)\frac{n}{2}$ distinct distances determined between the $x_i$, for some constant $c>0$ and all $n$ sufficiently large?

In the spirit of related conjectures of Erdős and others, presumably some kind of assumption that the points are in general position (e.g. no three on a line and no four on a circle) was intended.
