4. FAQs and Other information
There are no sidecar sessions planned as, in accordance MSV rules, all passengers would be required to have a full ACU racing license. This proved to be unpopular with the sidecar entries last year and the sessions were scrapped at the last minute. If you wish to enter a sidecar and have a passenger with a full ACU racing license let me know at events@vmcc.net. If we have enough to warrant a session we may squeeze one in. Road sidecars are not allowed on track days at all.
Other parts of the event are being managed by volunteers including Steve Allen & Annie Durant who can both be contacted at events@vmcc.net.
If necessary, for any query not covered by the FAQs or that cannot be resolved by email, Annie can be called on 07484 647046.
