Forum to Fire up Fans of Scottish Motorsport

For Immediate Use – 30/07/07

Fans of motorsport in Scotland will get the chance to meet top stars and get an insight into what it takes to be the best during National Motorsport Week.

A forum will be held at Bell College, Hamilton, on August 14 where the public will have the chance to meet their heroes and discuss various aspects of motorsport.

Chaired by Lee MacKenzie, the effervescent SKY TV presenter of A1GP, the rolling panel will include Scottish sporting champions such as rally legend Jim McRae and British Touring Car star Gordon Shedden, along with captains of industry and education.

It will provide an unashamedly Scottish viewpoint of how these people succeeded, and provide tips and advice to all young, and old, who want to get into or do more in motorsport.

The event will be held in the lecture theatre at Bell College in Lanarkshire and the audience limited to 170.

Under 17's will be admitted free of charge if accompanied by a paying adult.  Tickets are priced at £15 per head.

The evening kicks off at 18.30 and will run until 22.00.
