RHL Activities has announced an increase in the prize money for this year's quad race at Weston on October 11.Thanks to ACE ATV owner and former British Over 40 Quad Endurance Champion, Murray Boss, and racing enthusiast Pete Griffin, first to third place prize money in the Quad race have all been raised to match the purse of the solo race.
Murray and Pete realised the need to match the quad and solo prize money to encourage more of the top quad riders to take part in the annual beach event.
Murray said: "There are some exceptionally talented quad riders who don't receive the same recognition as solo racers. We need to look at bringing more money into the sport to improve quad events nationally and encourage new
people to take up this exciting activity.”
The quad prize money is now: £1,000 for the winner, £750 for second and £500 for third.
