Westmeath Motor Club prepare to host Championship race

The Westmeath & District Motor Club are hoping for a large turn-out when they host a quality motor-sport event in the area, a round of the prestigious LoughranSigns.com Midland East Rally Championship.

This event will be a tarmac rally sprint held at the Athboy Karting Centre, on the Delvin Road, Athboy, Co. Meath, on Sunday, August 24.

The timed runs will begin at 11am with all competitors getting three timed runs of three laps each.

This event will see a wide variety of rally cars compete for overall and class awards, as well as the all-important Championship points.

The Westmeath & District Motor Club is growing every year, with plans to run three motor sport events this year.
