Will Sand Racing survive the Covid 19 lockdown?

23rd August 2020

There has been almost no Motorsport action so far in 2020 so it was great to have a Sand Racing meeting to photograph on Saturday.

However the entry was very small so there is some way to go before normality arrives again.

There seems to be a lack of interest among Club members to 'get back in the saddle' across all forms of Motorsport after the disrupted year we have experienced. It is going to be a challenge to re-generate the interest among the racers. Saturday was a good example.

I hope that I'm wrong and my pessimism about the future of Sand Racing in Guernsey doesn't come about. There are decades of local history in this sport that should be preserved. If it ceases it is unlikely that it would return.

My pics of Saturday's racing are now online here:
