Chris Roberts the organiser of the 661 Mini Downhill races has just sent me over a copy of the number board for the Forest of Dean race on the 7th December. Dirt are sponsoring the boards so if you’ve entered you’ll get this lovely race plate designed by Brian from PPC

Chris told us that the race is now full but he’s still getting tons of ebeams and phone calls from folk trying to enter. Just goes to show how popular this type of event is.

If you haven’t managed to get an entry this time there will be more races at the Forest of Dean early next year as well as Chicksands.

Plus there’s always the Caersws Cup Downhill Series next year, 4 rounds all at Caersws just outside Newtown Mid Wales. Fantastic uplift and tracks.

Steve Jones from Dirt will be there taking photos and eating sausages plus Jon the Designer and Billy Trailstar will be racing in the old duffers category (if you can’t beat those two down that hill then you need to re-think your racing career.)
