Words & Images: Fastest 40 Press Release
The series heads to Preston Docks for round three on May 11th and 12th. The series will be the first National championship to visit the venue in 2024 and having recently been acquired by Lee McGarry. This will be a welcome return to the North-West Venue on the banks of the River Ribble.
On June 1st and 2nd, the series makes a welcome return to Landrake having not held a round there since 2022.
“We are delighted to be returning to both venues in 2024 and both add something different to the mix. We can’t wait to visit Preston Docks and see what developments Lee has made to the venue. Returning to Landrake is always great, with its old school style track and natural terrain set in the Cornish countryside, it makes for an ideal venue.” Commented Paul Irwin – Fastest 40 Race Director.
Several classes are already full, and a handful of spaces are left in the Apico Festival 125 class, Honda Cup and Pro Amateur classes. Any teams or riders still wishing to secure a place are asked to contact Kevin asap – Kevin@fastest40.co.uk
