Saturday Sprint Start 09:00am Finish 5:00pm
Sunday Rally Start 09:00am Finish 5:00pm
Following on from our previous successful Stratos UK Motorsport Weekends, we will once again be holding the Stratos UK Motorsport Weekend at Abingdon as part of the Abingdon CAR-nival Weekend.
The dates for this year’s event are Saturday and Sunday 7/8 June 2008.
Those of you who have been to any of the previous events will know what to expect – a full weekend of exciting motorsport, and the company of a hoard of Stratos enthusiasts.
Several Stratos will be competing over the course of the weekend, with many more on display. Quite a few new Stratos have been completed of the last few months and we are expecting to see some of them for the first time at Abingdon this year.
The victor in the Stratos Sprint on FIVE previous occasions, Jerry Bailey, is expecting to return to defend his title at the wheel of Lionel Gooch's Stratos Evolutione, but several other Stratos drivers are committed to trying to put an end to Jerry Bailey's string of wins in the Sprint.
As well as Jerry Bailey, the Stratos Evolutione will also be driven by David Watson, and it will be an interesting competion between these two drivers in this 350bhp machine.
Several drivers have installed newer and more powerful engines since the last event, so the competition should be even closer, and ever more exciting. This years event should definitely not be missed.
The weekend’s motorsport will once again
comprise a SPRINT on the Saturday,
and a RALLY on the Sunday, so we are all guaranteed an exciting weekend.
Maybe you need a red Stratos to be victorious at these events.
Will Jerry Bailey be able to hold on to his crown this year? Will a new contender come along and sweep all before them? Come down to Dalton Barracks, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, UK over the weekend of June 7/8 2008 to find out.
Anyone
planning to compete, or attend, this year, should let me know as soon as
possible, so that I can arrange entry forms, and so that I can get an idea of
how many competitors, and attendees, we can expect.
