“I was thrilled to visit Rockingham Speedway today.
“Its carbon-neutral status is leading the way in environmentally-friendly motoring. I was very impressed with their emphasis on teaching our kids about science and green technology.
“Rockingham Speedway is truly a great local business and I’m hugely supportive of what they’re doing.
“We are very fortunate to have such a first rate venue on our doorstep.”
