No Grand Prix, but plenty of action at the Bira Circuit

Having had some back to back Grands Prix, it is almost strange not to be sitting in front of the big screen at Jameson’s on Sunday night; however, there still is motor racing at the local Bira International circuit, with the promoter being called the S1R group.  This meeting is the 4th in their championship series, and they have been running qualifying on Friday and races on Saturday and Sunday, which is gilding the lilly a bit for what is really a ‘picnic’ race meeting.

Last weekend we took the TBX Escort to Kaeng Krachan, so hopefully it will still be race ready for the S1R meeting.  That’s the plan anyway.

We should have our sponsor’s AA Insurances hospitality tent operating at lunchtime on the Sunday, just round from the hairpin at the end of the straight.  You have to get there by coming in the pit entrance, which is 50 meters before the main entrance on Highway 36.  You go through the tunnel and then turn hard right and go up the hill.  The tent is a red gazebo style.  Plenty of cold drinks and shade.  Just say the magic words TBX Retro Escort.
