One of the worlds biggest classic motorcycle festivals makes its way back to Derbyshire, with two days of extreme racing on Donington Park's national circuit.Expect 43 races, guest class appearances from SupermonoGB, The Lansdowne Classic Series, Forgotten Racing Club, IHRO and The Camathias Cup, as well as all the CRMC Championships, catering for sidecar and solo machines from 1945 to 2003.
No less than 5 classic solo PR6 parades and a further 4 Historic Interest parades really give all enthusiasts the opportunity to ride this iconic circuit, at what really is the jewel in the CRMCs crown. The VJMC will join us both days for a display on the Melbourne Loop and packed PR5 parades over the lunch break of each day.
The highlight of Saturday will surely be the ACU Classic Championship, pitting all makes of 350cc and 500cc pre 1973 machines against each other over 8 laps for the ACU Classic Trophy, and Sunday's highlight will be the most desired Post Classic trophy in the world, the Wheatcroft Trophy. 10 Laps of Donington Park will decide who takes that home this year, and a grid of 40 is expected for that race. The ACU Supermono Championship will see a further full grid of Mono machines, some expected from Sweden, Denmark and Norway, battle it out to see who will take this national championship.
Entries open from 2nd June at 9am, and we cannot express how busy we are expecting this event to be. An early prediction of over 500 racing machines is realistic, and on top of that we expect at least another 150 parading machines. Nowhere else in the world will you get up close and personal with as many beautiful classic racing machines being used for that purpose.
