London’s Crystal Palace will once again play host to a national motorsport event with a two-day sprint event over the May 30-31 Bank Holiday weekend, reigniting the spirit of racing at the Park. Organized by Sevenoaks and District Motor Club, with the support of the London Borough of Bromley, the two-day event will allow visitors to enjoy the sights, sounds, and smells of legendary machines driven to victory by the likes of Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart, and Stirling Moss.

Martin Chinnery, Chairman of Sevenoaks DMC, says: "Sevenoaks DMC is extremely pleased to announce the return of motorsport to Crystal Palace. Thanks to a lot of hard work and the support of our title sponsor, the Ancaster Group, we're delighted that fans will once again be able to experience racing at the Palace. "

A host of modern and vintage cars will celebrate the rich history of motorsport at Crystal Palace by competing for the accolade of fastest car at the Park. Many of these vehicles raced at the Palace decades ago, and spectators will have a unique opportunity to see these classic machines reacquainted with Britain's oldest purpose-built racetrack. A new category for electric and alternative-powered cars will also be offered, providing visitors with a glimpse of things to come.

The circuit will include a section of the old track incorporating Pond Hairpin, the Big Tree Bend part of the Terrace Straight, and the infamous North Tower Crescent. Visitors seeking a break from the action can stroll around the numerous display vehicles and open paddock. Competitors and exhibitors will each donate a minimum £10 to support St. Christopher's Hospice and the Royal London Society for the Blind, ensuring that Motorsport at the Palace provides a lasting benefit to the community.

Tickets are priced at £10 each day, discounted for advance sale from the event website, http://www.motorsportatthepalace.co.uk.
