A half-mile course on a close public road with push start, 1:8 hill, chicanes and lots of other malarkey. Possible Camping and party on Saturday night. We positively encourage novice and novelty entries and will also run a class for National Rules soapboxes. Scrutineering likely to be on 30th or 31st August to give you a chance to modify if not safe to run.
Revised rules for 2009 are less restrictive, to try and get more fun into the event. Rules and entry forms will be sent to previous entrants by the middle of December, with entries being opened to all on Twelfth Night (6th January). There has been a lot of interest from new potential entrants, so get your entry in early to avoid disappointment.
