Three Finals on One Night and a Fireworks Spectacular

Saturday 7th November heralds the end of the 2009 BriSCA F1 Stock Car Racing season at Coventry Stadium and with it comes the annual BSCDA Trust Fund Race for Stars,Superstars and any A grade driver (blue roof) who has achieved star status during the season to make up a worthwhile grid.

The BSCDA Trust Fund is a registered charity created primarily to help through financial hardship any driver injured whilst racing. During the evening drivers will be walking amongst the crowd collecting donations for this very worthwhile cause – last year raising in excess of £1000 from the generous Coventry supporters.

November’s meeting follows the traditional Coventry format of three heats, consolation, final and grand national. First F1 race 7pm. The Trust Fund race coming as heat three, although the prize schedule for this race pays the same as the meeting final.

Also on Saturday at the end of the meeting, promoter Avtar Sandhu is staging an extra race for drivers who have won a race at Brandon in season 2009, including any driver who wins on the 7th who has not already qualified. This race pays an additional £1000 split between first £500, second £250, third £150 and fourth £100, places.

Consequently fans can look forward to a meeting with the equivalent of 3 finals on one night culminating in a Firework Spectacular.

The racers’ bonus is the promotion’s way of saying thank you to the drivers for their support throughout the year and fans will be delighted to hear that there will be no increased admission for this meeting. Adults £16 / Concessions £12 / Children 6-15 £5 and under fives Free. First F1 race at 7:00 pm.

Stop Press: A late addition to the programme of events at Coventry on 7th November are the V8 Hot Stox who have had their booking at Scunthorpe Raceway suddenly cancelled. Thanks to Avtar Sandhu, an important fixture for the V8’s, their Challenge Series Final and first World Championship Qualifier will now be staged at Brandon with three races slotted into the 8 race BriSCA F1 event.
