The best harness race track in the UK will replace horses for some of the fastest motor bikes around on Saturday 6th August at 7pm (gates open 6pm) when it will host the Tir Prince International All Stars Flat track Championship.

 

This is the first time that this exciting form of motor racing (similar to speedway with different motorbikes) has come to the North West and there will be eleven 2 mile races (four laps of the track) promoter Peter “The Boastie” Boast said “I am delighted to co-promote this official event with Adam Williams and David Senior. The track is the best we have ever raced on and I hope the British 2 mile record will be smashed, I am hoping that as we have been able to entice 32 of the fastest riders in Europe to the event average speeds will be over 100 mph. The event will star former speedway star Les Collins, former Isle of Man TT and television star Guy Martin as well as the best flat track racers around including the leader in the British rankings Aiden Collins and Italian Star Jacapo Monti.”

 

Adam Williams commented “I am really looking forward to the speed and excitement that will be generated by these International Stars”. David Senior added that he hoped people would pre-book tickets to avoid disappointment as a full house is expected.

 

Tickets can be booked on the Ticketweb/Ticketmaster website at £12.50 for adults and £7.50 for under 16’s with an adult. See the Tir Prince website for more details.
