The event took place during the Scottish Motor Racing Club race meeting with classes for Classics, Fiesta ST, Formula Ford, Junior, Mini, R53 and C1.

The car of Formula Ford driver Michael Gray, who finished P1 in the Scottish National Championship, looked resplendent with its Highland RFCA badge on the side of the cockpit.

During a break in a packed day of racing, guests had the opportunity to be driven round the circuit in a Honda Civic Type-R – a thrilling and not-to-be-forgotten experience!
