Mallory Park will know on Wednesday whether it will continue to run as a motorsport facility or not and needs your help in order to remain open by turning up to a public meeting and showing your support.
Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council is reviewing whether to force the historic circuit reduce its operations to just 92 days per year - forcing operators BARC to shut the facility as it will not be financially viable.
Mallory already reduced its operations by shutting down motocross, stopping drifting and offering to change track day times and maximum number of vehicles on track. It has also ordered a noise expert to provide an independent report and recommendations on how the track can reduce noise to acceptable levels for residents - in agreement with the Council. The Council has however posted its recommendation to reduce use to 92 days per year without taking this into account.
"The Council is deciding on the future of Mallory Park and if they agree to reduce the days to 92 then the circuit is finished and will shut down. The 145 jobs and £10million+ benefit to the local economy will be lost, along with a historic motor racing circuit," said general manager John Ward.
"The future of the circuit is now in the hands of the HBBC Councillors. We need them to understand we are working to reduce noise and improve life for residents and are committed to being good neighbours. Shutting the circuit is not the right choice. We need as many supporters as possible to join us on the 10th and make that point - Mallory Park is an important contributor and member of the local community."
The council meeting, which is public, starts at 6.30pm in the council chamber, Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council, Hinckley Hub, Rugby Road, Hinckley, Leicestershire, LE10 0FR.
