PACKED SCHEDULE FOR ONE DAY RACE MEETING
THE British Racing & Sports Car Club (BRSCC) returns to Rockingham this Saturday (June 13) for one day only and brings a packed schedule of racing with it.
Following a morning of qualifying from five different championships, the first of 12 races gets underway just before lunch and features the Mk5 Production GTi series, which is a new championship for 2015, and supported by Teekay Couplings.
The Teekay Couplings Mk2 Championship has gone from strength to strength and almost 30 of the iconic models will be on the Rockingham grid for a double-header on the 2.05-miles International Super Sportscar Long Circuit.
Rockingham is sure to live in the memory of all the GQ Caterham Academy drivers forever as this event marks their first competitive race on a real motor racing circuit! All 39 competitors are novices and so far have only competed in a couple of sprints, so it will be very interesting to see how they adapt.
Making the trek from the North East, the Darlington & District Motor Club’s Northern Saloon & Sports Car Championship will be bringing an eclectic mix of cars. The 21-strong field will contest two 15-minute races featuring cars such as a Lotus Elise, Ginetta G20, Peugeot 205 and Vauxhall Corsa.
However the biggest grid of the day will be provided by the BRSCC Mazda MX-5 Championship with more than 40 of the popular Mk1’s already booked in! The MX-5s have entertained wherever they have raced this season and the Rockingham configuration lends itself perfectly to the all-out style of racing the drivers are known for!
Advance adult tickets are priced at just £10 per day and admission for children aged 15 and under is FREE ensuring families can enjoy some of the best action from the British Club motor racing scene at an affordable price.
As always at Rockingham all tickets include access to a grandstand seat offering panoramic views of the entire circuit, the pit garage roof and race paddock, which means there are no hidden costs. The circuit prides itself on providing access to all motorsport fans, and those who are registered disabled can apply for a complimentary** admission ticket for their carer.
Advance tickets can be booked online at www.rockingham.co.uk or via the hotline on 01536 500500, option 1, until midday on Friday, June 12. Adult tickets will be available on the gate priced £15. Gates open at 08:00 and track activity starts from 09:00.
