Sir Stirling Moss is to race at Oulton Park in a special “Sterling Moss Trophy” race.
The “Sterling Moss Trophy” is for sports cars which were made pre 1961 and will feature the great man himself competing in the race. The event will take place on the August bank holiday weekend 29/30 August at Oulton Park for the annual Oulton Park Gold Cup.
