Great news for British Grasstrack: the 2024 British Masters Grass Track Championship will now run, with the Wimborne Motorcycle Club stepping forward to host the event on October 20th.
Over the past weeks, the event has been through a will it or will it not run scenario, but now the event is on, and we can look forward to seeing Britain’s best duke it out for the coveted Masters title.
The full statement by the ACU is below:
The ACU Track Racing Commission (TRC) are delighted to announce that after discussions with the Wimborne Motorcycle Club, the 2024 ACU International British Masters Grass Track Championship will be held on Sunday 20th October 2024 at Merley Hall Farm, Corfe Mullen, Dorset.
Riders and spectators will remember this venue from previous meetings, including a prior staging of the British Masters, and the field has only been used for sheep grazing since the last event and will be in tip top condition ready for this premier event.
The Wimborne club has recently been revived with some additional help and support, not least from Paul Miller, former promoter of the Sidecar Supercup series and someone who has a vast amount of riding knowledge, experience and promotional expertise in the world of Track Racing.
The ACU TRC are sure that this event will be a great success and a perfect setting for the pinnacle event of the British Track Racing calendar, and we hope that all the riders and spectators from near and far support this event.
More details on the line-up and timings for the day will be shared over the coming weeks and riders will be contacted by the ACU Track Racing Commission Co-ordinator in due course.
The ACU TRC would like to thank all members of the Wimborne Motorcycle Club for their help and support with staging this meeting and we all look forward to a great spectacle of Track Racing.
