WHO/Digital Nascar Team Race & Legends Pairs Race - Wednesday 18 May
Regulations can be found here: https://www.whoracing.org.uk/who_digital.html
Doors open at 6.30pm - please don’t arrive earlier, unless you’re part of the set-up crew, of course!
As always, we ask that all racers aged 12 or younger bring a responsible adult with them.
Race fees: £3 for adults, £2 for under-16s. We now have pre-pay options, including a WHO/digital season ticket.
Digital Wednesday format: The track is open for practice from 6.30, including a digital driving school aimed at new racers and those who need a refresher course. At 7pm, we allocate racers to teams for the Nascar club car team race. We’ll run 3 x 20 minute ‘segments’, with teams swapping cars. The aim is to get the most laps in the 60 minutes. Following that - at around 8.30pm - we have our Pioneer Legends pairs race, using racers’ cars. If you don’t have a car, there’s a very good chance you’ll be offered a ride as half of a ‘pair’, but there’s no guarantee. Two qualifying heats, a semi and a final bring us to the end of the evening by 9.45pm.
Covid precautions: Covid cases are dropping across England, but are still higher than we’d like. Please do not attend if you have any symptoms that might be Covid. This is to keep vulnerable members of the extended WHO family safe. Inside the Barn, wearing a face mask, practising good hand-hygiene and giving each other space remain non-negotiable requirements. We will ensure as good ventilation as possible - and will also have hand sanitiser and spare masks available if you forget your own. Any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Do let us know if you’re coming: This makes the job of our race control volunteers easier.
