RACING POSTPONED DUE TO MAIN SEWER EXPLOSION
Tir Prince are disappointed to announce the cancellation of the qualifying meeting on 22nd May and the race meeting planned for the 5th June.
The cancellations are due to a Welsh Water main sewer explosion at Tir Prince on Sunday 13th May at 4pm it caused significant damage to the track on the first bend.
Contractors working for Welsh Water have already repaired the cause and the slow process of repairing the track has started. Tir Prince’s Adam Williams commented ” The rebuilding of the track is a slow business because it is imperative that the levels are right and that the new area dries out evenly to give us a perfect surface for racing. Dry, warm weather will obviously help us and quicken the process.”
The next meeting is due to be held on 21st July, nine weeks away and Tir Prince are aiming for workouts and a qualifying meeting on Tuesday 10th July.
