ENTRIES ARE STILL OPEN FOR COVENTRY’S MOTOFEST RETURN
Closed-road sprint to feature as part of the city’s motoring celebration
Entries are still open for the third closed-road sprint that will take place as part of the MotoFest Coventry, which takes place next weekend (September 10-11).
The event, which has been on hiatus for the last two seasons, will return and feature two rounds of the BARC Connaught Speed Championship.
The events, which will take place on a specially created one-mile course on the city’s ring road, are open to sportscars and saloons, but single-seaters are unable take part due to licensing rules.
The event celebrates the motor industry in and around the city, and will feature displays of supercars, while a special showcase will be presented surrounding electric cars. There will also be other demonstrations of racing machines, high performance cars and static displays.
James Noble, MotoFest Coventry Festival director, said: “We are excited to welcome the return of the supercars to MotoFest.
“The Supercar Driver Club has always proved a real crowd pleaser during previous festival appearances, and
I am sure they will wow visitors again this year. It’s great to have them onboard and it’s another exciting addition to a supercharged programme of twoand four-wheeled action across the festival weekend.”
There will also be a free-to-attend music concert, named the MotoFest After Party, in Warwick Road.
