Craigantlet Hillclimb
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Craigantlet Hillclimb, organised by the Ulster Automobile Club, is the only such venue in Northern Ireland to host a round of the British Hill Climb Championship. The course is 1460 yards (1335 metres) in length, and unlike hillclimbs in Great Britain is laid out on closed public roads. As of the end of the 2006 season the outright hill record is held by Adam Fleetwood, whose time of 39.87 seconds was set on 7 August 2004.
Tragedy stuck at Craigantlet in 1995 when Mark Colton was killed in practice for the event.
