| Alan 'Bud' Jackson Campaigns for 250 Race
|
 Five times Manx Grand Prix winner, Alan 'Bud' Jackson,
one of the famous Jackson brothers, has started a
campaign to save the 250 TT Race.
The TT Programme has been changed for 2002, and the
250cc machines will be ran amongst the 600's in the
Junior race, with no separate class.
Jackson has talked about the matter with Isle of Man
Minister for Tourism and Leisure David Cretney, in a
bid to reverse the decision. Bud is looking for
support with this campaign and would like to hear from
anyone who might be able to help. He can be contacted on
01539 726820 or 01524 271778.
The loss of a separate race for the 250's is another
body blow for two stroke racing in general, which is
currently in a state of decline due to high cost's and
maintenance, coupled with the lack of new machines
coming into the UK.
