The Celebration of Southwest Motorsport takes place in Cullompton this weekend.
On March 10, a special theme day hosted by Re:Fuel, in partnership with Wiscombe Park will take place; the first of its kind event.
Starting from 9 am petrolheads of all ages can get up close to a display of competition cars, chat with the drivers and learn more about the fast-paced world of motor racing.
Dan Regan, co-founder and director of Re:Fuel said: "We're thrilled to be partnering with Wiscombe Park, a brilliant motorsport venue which we are fortunate enough to have based so close to us, to bring this special event to the Re:Fuel community. At Re:Fuel, we're passionate about creating a space for car lovers to connect and celebrate their shared passion. The Celebration of Southwest Motorsport is a perfect example of that, and we can't wait to see the amazing cars and enthusiasts that come together on the day."
Whether you're a seasoned motorsport fan or just starting to explore your interest in cars, the Celebration of Southwest Motorsport is the perfect event for you. Entry is free.
Re:Fuel’s well established theme days take place every Saturday and Sunday across the entire year. Sponsored by Falken Tyres, Re:Fuel’s venue features a number of ties to Motorsport from custom painted track layouts on the walls of the café to housing Apex Race Centre, the Southwest’s leading Motorsport Sim Racing Centre. When you visit for the Celebration of Southwest Motorsport day you will also be able to personally showcase your driving skills on Apex’s state of the art racing simulators.
Graham Mitchell, of Falken Tyres UK, said “Falken has motorsport in its DNA, so this is a community very close to our hearts. We have recently launched a new Ultra-Ultra-High-Performance (UUHP) tyre - the RS820 - that is equally at home on the road and track and we can't wait to showcase it on the 10th in partnership with Re:Fuel and the Apex Race Centre”
Nigel Cole, head of PR at Wiscombe Park, said: "We're delighted to be working with Re:Fuel to showcase the best of southwest motorsport to a wider audience. Wiscombe Park has a long and proud history of hosting top-level motorsport events, and we're excited to share our passion with the Re:Fuel community. This is a great opportunity for people to see incredible cars up close, meet the people who drive them, and learn more about motorsport in the Southwest."
For the past 60 plus years, Wiscombe Park has run national and club motorsport events on its 1000 yard hillclimb circuit. In 1962 Wiscombe was selected to host rounds of the British Hillclimb Championship and has continued to do so every year since. By attending a Wiscombe Park event you will be able to see single seater race cars, historic cars and an array of motorcycle machinery.
