ULSTER TROPHY RACE
Although it has lost the T.T., Ulster will see a big race at Ballyclare on Jmie 19th, organised by the Ulster A.C. Starting at 8 p.m. the race will be run -over thirty-six laps of a 4 mile 250 yards course. Entries finally closed on June 7th, starters being limited to thirty. The regulations admit almost any class of open car not exceeding 3-litres, and any sort of fuel is permissible. The first prize is the Ulster Trophy, replica, and £100. Second prize is a replica of the Trophy and £50, with replicas and £25 and 410 respectively for the third and fourth place men. A credit lap system of handicapping will be used, it is hoped with complete laps, differentiating the
classes. If so, cars will be started in rows, engines running, the fastest cars in practice getting the leading positions. Practice takes place on June 17th, between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m. and three complete observed laps are compulsory. Details of this, another excellent Irish road-race, are obtainable from the Ulster A.C., 65, Chichester Street, Belfast.
