BRITISH legend Chris Harris will race for the Coventry Bees Select side in Birmingham's season opener at Perry Barr next month (Wednesday, April 12, 7.30).
The former Grand Prix regular, who also raced for the Brummies in 2013 and 2021, is the first racer confirmed for the visitors in the West Midlands Challenge.
In addition, former Sidecar Champion Shaun Harvey, who is the main sponsor of Harris, will also back the Bees via Northeast Demolition UK Ltd for the event.
Curtis Sport Brummies co-promoter Laurence Rogers said: "A big thank you to Northeast Demolition UK Ltd and owner Shaun for stepping in to support the meeting - it is hugely appreciated.
"We had a great battle with the Bees last year and with the side they are putting together behind the scenes, this will be a really good opening test for our new look Brummies.
"Having 'Bomber' on board to lead their side is a great start to announcing their 1-7 with more names to be released soon."
