New government rules would ban some track day fans

A motorsport company which holds regular track days in the North of the Island says new government rules may mean some people can't take part any more.

RPM Events holds popular events on the motorsports track at Jurby Airfield, with the first of this year due to get underway at Easter.

But last night it took to Facebook to say the Department for Enterprise now insists all participants have a full car or motorcycle licence.

The company says that would mean some people can no longer take part, and says it's now talking to the government about the new requirements.
