Stars of the future return to action at Clay Pigeon Raceway

The FAB-Racing Round 3 provided a stern test for Britain’s stars of the future in the five competitive classes

Only a fortnight after an action-packed weekend at Lydd for Rounds 1 and 2, the Fab-Racing Minibike British Championships were back underway for Round 3 at Clay Pigeon in Dorset.

The Clay Pigeon circuit provided a different challenge for Britain’s stars of the future, with a much tighter, and more twisty layout. The circuit gave no rest for the young talent with the lap flowing from corner to corner, a curved start/finish, and only one short straight on the seven-corner circuit.
