Employment Opportunities For Young Given New Hope At Race Retro
28 February 2007
There is a recognised skills shortage in the historic motorsport industry; hence there are extensive employment opportunities for young people willing to learn new skills. But until now, there has been a problem. The majority of businesses in this sector are small, owner-managed companies, reluctant to recruit unskilled staff. At the same time, there has been no single, nationally co-ordinated training programme throughout the industry.

Seventh Heaven At Stoneleigh
21 November 2006
Following last year’s record crowds the seventh Dirt Bike Show at Stoneleigh Park was expanded for 2006, giving visitors an unrivalled opportunity to see everything that’s hot in the world of off-road biking, with live entertainment that was out of this world and plenty of heavenly bodies too! Attendance figures have yet to be finalised but Promoto, who have run the Show since its inception in 2000, are confident that their initial count of 19,000 through the turnstiles is accurate to within a fraction. The weekend remained very busy, with the only marked decrease on the Friday, which was undoubtedly due to torrential rain that made road travel almost impossible in the Midlands.
