The Catherine Cookson Classic.
Saturday 7th July, North East R/C Racing present this inaugural event to be held in Bents Park, South Shields Sea Front.
This 2 & 4wd off road competition is to be used as a show case event to show South Tyneside Council what R/C racing is all about. Hopefully, this will lead to a Partnership between the Council and NERCR to create a much needed, permanent, high quality R/C racing facility in the North East.
Bents Park is a Public area adjacent to the North Sea. Toilet facilities are available and there is a camp site in the next field to the park
NERCR would appreciate all the support we can get from regional racers to make this event a high quality, professional meeting, on what is going to be a busy day down at South Shields sea front.
Council members, the Mayor and local Politicians attend this event along with thousands of spectators. So this truly will be a showcase event.
If you could, we would really appreciate you putting this date in your diary, and attending. More details are to follow.
