Championship leader Ant Whorton-Eales will demonstrate his SV Racing fourth-generation Clio at the event, alongside JamSport Racing pairing Dan Holland and George Jackson, and 20Ten Racing’s Jordan Stilp.
The demonstration runs will take place on a specifically designed 1.5 mile street circuit based around Coventry’s ring road, with the event having attracted over 70,000 spectators last year.
