Over the past few months the rumour mill has run wild with the possibility of Birmingham Wheels Raceway closing down and another track being lost.

Spedeworth / Incarace are pleased to announce that a new agreement has been signed to continue operating at the raceway.

Whilst this is good news for the sport, the new agreement has meant changes within the contract which inevitably include cost increases.

As a result, the decision has been necessary to increase the practice fees on a Wednesday night and the Saturday afternoons to £35.00 per driver to try and cover these cost increases of operating the venue.

We hope that everyone can understand the reasoning behind the price increase which will help cover the new costs and keep the raceway operational for the future.

Thank you.

Members of Parkinson’s UK Lewes Support Group gave a big send-off to Tris and Debbie Matthews, ahead of their Run To The Sun in the Benidorm Banger Road Rally.

The Stock Car enthusiasts, who live in Laughton, are set to join 60 or so other drivers setting out from the Ace Cafe on the old North Circular Road in NW London for the gruelling charity rally next month. The only qualifying rule for each car is that it must not have an on-the-road price greater than £300!

Tris is 53 and was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2017. He said: “Stock Car Racing has been a huge part of my life, both as a spectator and a driver.

“So we’ve dressed up a classic 1995 Daimler as a Spedeworth Control Car, in traditional colours but with Parkinson’s UK livery.

“On its return from Spain it will end its life – in the familiar Stock Car way – at the Arlington Stadium.”

Tris (pictured centre, with his hand on the windscreen) and Debbie will share the drive of more than 380 miles a day for four straight days, arriving in Benidorm on 27 April where all the cars completing the run will form up for a colourful parade along the seafront.

An estimated 145,000 people in the UK have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s, the second most common progressive brain condition. There is no cure.

Local groups of the national charity Parkinson’s UK, like the Lewes Group, provide friendship and practical support to people living with Parkinson’s, and raise funds to support research internationally.

Chris Oswick, Co-ordinator of the Lewes Group, said: “We are a small group with around 40 members. I’m sure the drive will be a tough ‘ask’ at times for Tris. But we are hugely appreciative of what he is doing, and members wanted to wish him well.”
