The entries are coming in thick and fast for the "Season Opener" which is being held at Leicester Speedway on Saturday 13th April. 20+ crews have already signed up for this event and if this is the taste of things to come for 2019, then we are all in for a fantastic season ahead.
The ACU Events backed series is growing year by year and off-season the interest has increased beyond belief. Teams were invited to ACU house for a open forum last month to discuss ideas for the coming season. Championship conditions are currently being looked over and they will be going out to crews as soon as they have been finalised.
But right now we need to concentrate on getting the season underway.
The leaflets are out and a programme advert was placed in last weekend's big Ben Fund Meeting programme.
A spokesman from the organiser's stated "We've had a couple of fantastic seasons now. Both the fans and riders have really got behind the series and we can't wait for the tapes to go up on the new 2019 season".
The tapes go up in less than two weeks time. The date Saturday April 13th with practice at 6.30pm. Riders Parade at 7.15pm with the tapes up 7.30pm. And with prices held at only £10 with under 16's going free it's a bargain for all the family.
So make it a date, prepare for the 1000cc Sidecars....they're getting ready to rumble! RIDERS CONFIRMED SO FAR! Paul Whitelam/Alan Elliott
