"Rockingham: A Historic Town with a Thrilling Racing Legacy" Step back in time to the late 18th century, as we explore Rockingham through the eyes of W. Fairbank and Thomas Harris. In their detailed plan of Sheffield, we catch a glimpse of the town's rich history and architectural marvels. Fast forward to modern times, where adrenaline-fueled races take center stage at Rockingham Motor Speedway. Witness the fierce competition between racing legends CM15 9675 Matt Neal and Gordon Shedden, both behind the wheel of Honda Civic Type R cars. Their skillful maneuvers on the track leave spectators breathless. But Rockingham isn't just about speed; it also appreciates artistry. George Stubbs' masterpiece "Whistlejacket, " painted around 1762, captures the grace and power of horses—a fitting tribute to this equestrian-loving town. Zooming in on specific sections of Rockingham's racetrack, we follow CM15 9195 "The racing line" from Deene to Yentwood—every twist and turn meticulously planned for maximum excitement. CJ6 1355 Rob Austin adds his own flair in an Audi A4 while CM10 3917 Tom Ingram showcases his finesse in a Toyota Avensis. Beyond its racing heritage lies another side of Rockingham—the serene Coastal Beach that offers respite from high-speed thrills. Take a moment to soak up nature's beauty before returning to action-packed races. CM26 3738 Richard Dillon fearlessly takes on challenges in his Citroen C1 while CM21 0228 Lee Pattison represents WDE Motorsport with pride. These drivers embody Rockingham's spirit—determined and relentless. Last but not least, Jason Plato commands attention as he conquers every curve in his Subaru Levorg GT (CM15 9643). His expertise epitomizes what makes Rockingham such a revered destination for motorsport enthusiasts.
