Save the Brighton Speed Trials
The Speed Trials is part of Brighton’s heritage having run in the area since 1905. Thousands of people come down to the seafront for an entertaining fun-packed day out for the whole family to watch race cars and motor bikes compete along Madeira Drive.
The event has grown over the years and now even enjoys international acclaim. It has the full support and backing of the Motorsport Association and adheres to their strict rules of safety.
The end of the Speed Trials will be the end of an era for
Brighton. It will have a major negative financial impact on tourism
and trade in the area and mean the loss of one of the highlights on
Brighton’s seafront entertainment calendar.
Please sign the petition and help keep the Speed Trials going.
A decision will be made by the council’s Economic
Development and Culture Committee at a meeting on 23 January
2014.
