Mince Pie Mayhem will be our Christmas race meeting and we plan to make it a fun one. It will be very similar to the Easter Speedway event we did back in April. But this time the teams will be bigger and the prizes will be festive. The meeting will be limited to 25 racers, so make sure you are booked in early via the form below.

The teams will be put together by race control. They will be decided based on each racers club ability level, so the event will be as close as possible.

Every race will be refereed.

The starting positions for each race will be mixed. Each racer should start half of their races towards the front of the grid and half at the back.

Every race winner collects a Mince pie to be shared out with their team. The winning team will each win some chocolates.
