out of race HQ at 10.55am and starts officially at 11.03am.
The last lap of each race will be slightly shorter than the preceding laps because the races finish on Dorey’s Forge rather than at the start line of Elliott’s garage a little further up the road.

GP, starting in Banbridge, two races will be contested; a handicapped
race catering for A1, A2 and A3 categories

distance of approximately 76.5km.
