At 11am, around 25 historic cars of various makes, models and ages will set off in spectacular convoy from the Dunkenhalgh Hotel & Spa in Clayton-le-Moors, near Blackburn, making their way to Accrington’s Broadway in the town centre as part of the daytime celebrations of the Rally Drivers’ Ball.
The event will pay tribute to the Accrington Pals in the centenary year of World War One and there will be a collection in the town centre to raise money for future Pals’ projects.
These remarkable vehicles will then be on display in the grounds of the Dunkenhalgh Hotel & Spa for the remainder of the afternoon.
The collection will showcase a variety of classic racing cars, including rally cars, several entrants from the Le Mans 24 hour race and even a Formula 1 car from 100 years ago, all of which will driving through Accrington town centre for all to see.
The circuit will have a ceremonial start at the Dunkenhalgh Hotel & Spa with Tim Foster from “Group B Rally Cars” and Chris Wood himself. The cars will drive through to Broadway before turning back and returning to the starting point.
During the circuit, there will be the chance for a photo call outside Accrington town hall, so no one will miss the once-in-alifetime opportunity to capture these spectacular vehicles all in one place!
