Holeshot Racing ꦿhas suffered thefts of its van and racing bikes before thieves set fiওre to the vehicle.

Jarrod Jack Frost and his team Holeshot Racing arrived in the UK from Northern Ireland ꧂on Thursday 17^thAugust, with the plan to run a number of its top-spee𒉰d bikes at Elvington World Wheelie Weekend in North🍬 Yorkshire.

But thieves broke into the team’s Mercedes Sprinter van during the night from a hotel car park near Elmet, Leeds. Inside the van were three Hayabusa Turbo Top Speed bike꧙s, three mountains bikes – a Snap-on roll cab complete with tools, spare wheels and tyres and leathers, helmets and various other items of kit.

Appealing on Facebook at 2am on Friday, August 18^th, Frost wrote: “Words can't describe. Our van has j🌄ust been stolen in last couple of hours. Near Sherburn in Elmet, Leeds. Reward for return.”

However, the van was fou🌠nd burnt out in a field later that day, with two o🔯f the Hayabusa Turbo Top Speed bikes inside – including Frost’s own Land Speed Record Hayabusa.

“As I am sure you can imagine we are all very upset; wꦡords cannot describe how devastated Jarrod is right now,” Frost’s sister Caroline Frost said. “He has worked so hard for many years to build his business and put an extraordinary amount of time and money into building these top speed bikes.

“Jarrod has had an overwhelming amount of suppo꧅rt from his friends and family, but this is an absolute nightmare for his as the van is insured, but unfortunately the contents in transit a🌜re not.

“This is a loss of over £100,000.”

A fundraiser set up for Frost aims to raise £40,00✤0.
