Emmen Racetrack NL
Our partnership with Emmen is going from strength to strength which is great news for this year’s World Final when we could see the highest turnout of Dutch F1 drivers and possibly a similar story on the Friday night with the F2’s. Minne Meyer the Emmen promoter has done an excellent job by licensing over 85 Dutch F1 drivers to race at the track and has grown a huge national following for banger racing from drivers to fans. We launched the Golden Helmet as an inter track championship last season which has seen a great deal of interest in Holland partly due to the difficulties at Venray but mainly as the Dutch love to take on the Brits. The last minute fixture change to place the British on the same day as the Emmen Golden Helmet has created a problem. We hope that a solution can be found to enable all the top UK drivers to compete in Holland by changing the fixture date so we are asking drivers and fans to check our respective web sites as we get nearer to the start of the season for an update on when the fixture will be run. We are continuing with our discussions on developing a large scale International Banger event which would rotate between Coventry Emmen and other European tracks which share our vision however this will not be in place until 2011. We both extend an open invitation to banger drivers from overseas who wish to race at our circuits during the coming season and will build upon those that made the trip in 2009. We will keep you all posted during the season as to our progress on developing all forms of International Oval Racing at both Emmen and Coventry.
