We are sad to have to announce that the Rallycross event due to take place on 6th October at Blyton Park has been cancelled due to low numbers.
Although we were prepared to run the event at a financial loss, there still needed to be sufficient entries to provide good racing for you, the drivers. Unfortunately, with the spread of entries across classes, it would not be possible to have grids of any more than 2 or 3 cars, which would not be acceptable to either drivers or organisers.
The decision to cancel has not been taken lightly and we hope that competitors can understand the reasons at this time. All those who had entered have been notified by email and we thank them for their support.
We are currently making plans for RX at Blyton for 2020, starting with the test day on the 23rd February and look forward to seeing you all in the New Year.
