[HERO-ERA Training Academy – Green & Blue Events]
The going is good for the HERO Challenge to venture into South Wales for the first time - The odds are it'll be a great days motorsport and based at Chepstow Racecourse it'll be a different type of horsepower required as crews tackle some great tests and some of the finest roads in the area, they may be familiar to anyone who’s tackled LeJog but you'll get to enjoy them in daylight for HC3.
*This year sees the Master’s Class dropped from all HERO-ERA events having, in the opinion of the team, ran its course and will allow all crews to compete for the overall honours once again.

Event Schedule
Day 0 - Scrutineering & Documentation - 03 October 2025
Scrutineering and documentation will take place on through late Friday afternoon and early evening at Chepstow Race Course, allowing crews plenty of time to travel and prepare for the next days challenge day.
Day 1 - Rally Day - 04 October 2025
Starting from Rally HQ its going to be a day of regularities and tests coupled with a mid morning coffee and a restorative lunch halt before a late afternoon finish with Dinner and prize giving. For the first time the HERO Challenge is going to venture in to South Wales with a promise of some proper technical Welsh roads for the regularities and fast and flowing tests (and hopefully a few surprises), coupled with whatever the British weather can throw at us in early October - its going to be a challenge!
As with all HERO Challenges the event will be a mix of straight forward regularities using tulips, jogularities and maps, and some great tests to give drivers and navigators a work out! a great end to the Series
