Donington Park Slot Car Festival

23rd May 2010

Things really started to take off in 2010. Mark and Julie of Scale Models had also been present at the previous events and teamed up with Roger Barker to run one at the Donington F1 car museum.

It used a similar formula and again was successful in attracting a large crowd around the 2000 mark.
