HRP Summer Speed Weekend Preview

Meeting Date: Saturday 25th July

Join Our Facebook Event | Purchase Advance Tickets For This Event. HRP SUMMER SPEED WEEKEND

We are back in action at Lochgelly Raceway with an exciting two day event. Be sure to join us for an action packed weekend of racing, bringing you superb metal crunching action and wheel to wheel racing you won’t want to miss.

At Lochgelly Raceway, you can stand metres from the action and feel the wind as the cars race by, have excellent views of the full track from almost any vantage point around the raceway, and feel the atmosphere as spectators cheer on there favourite drivers. Before the event gets underway, you can visit the pit area and catch up with your favourite drivers, kids can get photos with them, or in some cases, even get to sit in the cars. It’s a brilliant family night out that will create memories and friendships that last a lifetime. Racing gets underway at 5.15pm this weekend, and you can simply pay on arrival – Cash or card payment accepted.

We have a feast of on track action this weekend, and it all gets going with the fun filled Cozy Coupe car race, which will take to the track at 4.50pm. The race may be split depending on numbers by approximate age groups if required. We ask everyone that is participating in this to ensure you arrive early enough to have purchased your wristbands for the weekend, and to get to the pit gate for 4.45pm, ready to load the track!

The Unlimited Bangers headline the bill on the Saturday night as they race for their Scottish Championship. A strong field of cars is anticipated, with a host of drivers from throughout Scotland and England taking to the track. Harvey Webb joins us as he makes the trip north to try and defend the title that he won in 2025 – if he does do so, he will be the first driver that has successfully defended it since we launched the Scottish Championship event several years ago. The Unlimited Bangers only appear at Lochgelly once throughout the season, and it is great to see the formula around Lochgelly Raceway – The Unlimited’s will race for over £1500 of prize money, with the bulk of it being on the Scottish race, but the following races will also see some strong prize money up for grabs, including an entertainer award of £250, and if enough driver interest, a £250 DD.

The ORCi Ministox will contest their European Championship qualifying heats on Saturday night – with 3 races will all cars taking part in each of the three races. Drivers will draw numbers upon signing in, and those numbers will be input into our spreadsheet to determine the grids for the qualifying heats. Most of the formula’s top drivers are set to be with us with representation from around Scotland, England and Northern Ireland. UK Champion Charlie Weston will start as one of the pre-race favourites with the youngster often performing well upon his visits to Lochgelly Raceway. Ollie Sime took the Scottish Championship a few weeks ago at Crimond and will be keen to add to that. British Champion Stuart Shevill Jnr Jnr has been one of the stand out drivers at Lochgelly this year and will certainly fancy his chances around his home track. Ben McLellan and Corey Mathers have both been in great form, and will be in with a chance of success this weekend. Jamie Balfour has been in great form of late – coming close to success in the British Championship back in June, before winning the Keir Millar Memorial – he’ll be full of confidence and will be keen to enjoy this weekend amongst the top drivers. Irish Open Champion Jacob Roff joins us as well in what is a star studded line up! We ask all Ministox race teams to join our WhatsApp group which we will use to send over grids, results and any other information across the weekend – Use the link https://chat.whatsapp.com/GxaY5abrfxhE8P1Kn9bcZ8 to join.

The Rebels formula return to Scotland after a number of year lay off, and they are back with a vengeance as over 30 of the robin powered cars make the trip north as hey are set to bounce there way around Lochgelly Raceway! The European and Scottish Championships will be contested, as well as each day counting as a qualifying round for the formula’s World Championship. There is plenty to race for and we’re excited to see them back!

The Superstox contest the John Gibson Memorial Event on Saturday night – being defended by 12 Craig Stephen. No driver has won this event twice and Craig will be looking to become the first driver to do so. He’ll have some stern competition though, as the likes of in-form Bryan Forrest and Kenny McKenzie will be keen to take the win. Josh Duff has shown good pace in his new car, and will be one to watch out for if he has cured his issues that hampered him last weekend.

The Junior Bangers compete both days and will bring some brilliant on track action – The Junior Bangers have delivered superb racing at all events this season and we are looking forward to having them back on track for what feels like an eternity. A number of southern based drivers are set to be with us as well, and we could see around 15 cars take to the track.

The 1600 Bangers race on Sunday afternoon as they contest their Scottish Championship – Craig Royal took the title in 2025. We are set to see a new driver claim the title, with Craig not currently booked to race (at time of writing). A number of southern based drivers are making the trip north to join us, and we are sure the 1600s will provide some great action on Sunday afternoon – Over £1000 of prize money is up for grabs, which includes a DD fund of over £200 as well!

The Junior Productions are a late addition to the bill, replacing the 2.0 Hot Rods. The Juniors have seen strong numbers, and great competitive racing throughout the season. Callum Ritchie has been the quickest of the bunch, but had found consistency a barrier earlier in the season, though looks to have overcome that now with some great results over the last few meetings. Leeland Dearn was in good form last time out too, whilst Connor st Aubyn has been quietly going about his business, consistently scoring well. Adam Donnelly has found good form as well, and has seen his confidence sky rocket with some good results over the last few meetings both at home and in Northern Ireland. Candice Smart is set to join us this Sunday for another meeting around Lochgelly Raceway.

We hope that you enjoy your visit with us at HRP Lochgelly Raceway. Pick up a fixture list at the main reception to see what we have in store for the rest of the season.
