[HERO-ERA Training Academy – Green & Blue Events]
2023 Text
The final edition for 2023 sees us heading north of the M62 to new pastures, opening up both new test venues and roads not used before on a HERO Challenge. Based to the north of Preston we will have ample chances to use the moorland roads of Lancashire and the area of outstanding natural beauty bordering onto the Yorkshire Moors.
Event Schedule
Day 0 - Scrutineering & Documentation - 04/10/2024
Scrutineering and Documentation will take place during Friday late afternoon / evening allowing crews time to travel.
Day 1 - Lincolnshire - 05/10/2024
Starting from Rally HQ its going to be a day of regularities and tests coupled with coffee and lunch halts before a late afternoon finish with Dinner and prize giving. Hero Challenge 3 is going to venture into some new territory using some of the best roads in Lincolnshire for the Regularities, an area more challenging than people think! We’ve also been hard at work to find some great venues for the tests as well and of course who knows what the British weather can throw at us in early October!
As with all Hero challenges the event will be a mix of straight forward regularities using tulips, jogularities and maps, and some great tests to give drivers and navigators a work out! a great end to the Series and an equally great warm up for the Rally of the Tests.
