Press release
The Scottish Classic Speedfair at Knockhill Racing Circuit on 8th June 2008
Classic Cars, Racing and Motorsport memorabilia at Knockhill's Classic Speedfair
Naturally, there will be a strong Scottish content on the programme including a special tribute to Scotland’s greatest racing driver, Jim Clark who was killed on the 7th of April 1968 whilst racing at the Hockenheim Racing Circuit in Germany.
One of the most sought after awards will be the Sir Jackie Stewart Trophy for Formula Ford Single Seater racing cars.
In addition, two major Ferrari racing series will make their debut at the circuit whilst Classic Sports and Saloon car drivers will be competing in the first ever running of the Jimmy Stewart Trophy race, honouring Sir Jackie’s late elder brother.
The 1995 World Rally Championship winning Subaru of the late, great and sorely missed Colin McRae will take pride of place amongst the many special exhibits.
Visitors to the nostalgic extravaganza can expect to enjoy a fantastic day of 4 wheeled motoring heritage and entertainment both on the track and off it with hundreds of classic exhibits and demonstrations.
Classic SpeedFair truly has something for everyone, from grandson’s to grandad’s.
A comprehensive Press Pack (http://www.knockhill.com/classic) for the Scottish Classic Speedfair is available and Knockhill Racing Circuit would encourage anyone to utilise the stories and imagery within. Any media support offered beforehand would be most welcome and much appreciated.
