Two Scottish titles are due to be decided at Lochgelly Raceway this evening as Hardie Race Promotions stages a five-formula Saturday meeting in Fife.
The Big Van Banger Scottish Championship and CC Rod Scottish Championship headline the bill on 7 November. The first race is scheduled for 5pm, with gates and driver sign-in opening at 2pm.
Five formulas on the programme
ProStocks, 2.0 Hot Rods and Junior Productions are also listed for the meeting. The organiser says a fireworks display is planned, although that part of the programme remains subject to the weather.
The Big Van Banger title brings full-size commercial vehicles to the oval, while the CC Rod championship adds a second national prize to the meeting. Published booking lists include drivers from across Scotland and northern England, but the organiser advises that fixtures and entries can change.
A mechanics’ charity race is also planned. Participants must raise at least £50, with the money going to the promotion’s nominated charities for 2026.
Tickets and travel
Admission is available on arrival, with no online tickets for this meeting. General admission is £20, concessions are £17 and tickets for children aged 10 to 15 are £10. Children under 10 can enter free. Trackside parking starts at £7.
The venue is Lochgelly Raceway, Lochgelly, Fife, KY5 9BU. Spectators travelling later in the day should check the organiser’s latest notice before setting out, particularly because the fireworks are weather-dependent and race programmes can change.
The official event preview was added on 2 November. The event itself takes place today, Saturday 7 November.
