Go Fund Me Page Has Almost Reached £6,000!

Work is already under way at Kirkistown Circuit to create the infrastructure necessary to facilitate the installation of signal lights around the track.

The overall project is costing close to £250,000 but it will secure the future of the circuit for MotorsportUK car racing for many years.

While we are getting grants from various official bodies, the 500MRCI is having to fund approximately half of the total.

Our Chairperson, Fay Weir, recently set up a Go Fund Me page, for this project ( https://www.gofundme.com/f/500-mrci-light-panel-funding ) and the response has been encouraging. There have been some great, four figure, contributions but we also need the little contributions, no matter how small, because they all add up and make a difference.

By contributing the cost of a fish supper on https://www.gofundme.com/f/500-mrci-light-panel-funding , you can help bring this project to fruition.

Many people have already contacted Fay to make direct contributions. These are very welcome and will show up on the page very soon.

Kirkistown is one of only a few Motorsport UK licensed car racing circuits in the UK not yet to have safety signal light panels around the course.

These light panels aid marshalling, provide increased visibility in wet weather and massively aid accurate communication between Race Control and drivers, during races. They will make racing safer for both marshals and competitors and are currently highly recommended by Motorsport UK. It is very likely that they will become mandatory, in the near future.

2 & 4 Wheel Motorsport, Motorsport UK and the British Motorsport Trust are providing substantial funding but we, as a club, will still have to spend at least £100,000 to complete the project.

We have decided to approach our friends, supporters and members to assist financially with this project by means of a Go Fund Me page, set up by our Chair Person, Fay Weir. (See below). All contributions, both large and small, will be gratefully appreciated.
