November 2005 at the age of 34. The Richard Burns Foundation aims to assist in
the support and care of those who are suffering from life threatening or
serious illness or injuries. The RBF also incorporates the Michael Park Fund
set up to help people and also support their families, who have suffered
serious or life threatening injuries, particularly those suffered in motor
sport, whilst also promoting and aiding research into these causes and their
prevention.
The
London Motorsport Show covers all disciplines of motorsport and is a must for
any motor racing enthusiast. Karting, rally driving, saloons and single seater
racers will all be represented with ‘have a go’ areas and workshops by leading
professionals. Zones include the Future of Motorsport, Girls in Motorsport and
Historic Motorsport.
The
show also hosts Central London’s first live motorsport action – The London
Masters Rallycross Competition which will see competitive racing in the grounds
of Excel in an arena based circuit that will see around 100 Rallycross
competitors battle it out over the two days. Reigning division champions will
test their driving skills to limit on a purpose built course that has been
created specifically for the competition. Reaching speed of 80mph and aiming

seats watching the exhilarating live action.
