Two race meetings every week at Southend ! | ||||
| Outdoor Racing - Sundays Eastwoodbury Lane - SS2 6UH This purpose built track has been developed from a mixed surface off-road circuit for electric and IC 'buggies' to a complex all tarmac surface for saloon cars.
Since the original tarmac conversion in 1997, racing has been dominated by electrically powered cars. However,
the new circuit, finished in early 2004, is faster and smoother, making it suitable for the higher powered
'modified' electric motors, as well as 'modest' I.C. cars. The track is open all day every Sunday for race meetings and at other times by special arrangement.... more ... |
Indoor Racing - Tuesdays Runnymede Hall - SS7 1TF Doors open 7pm. Racing starts 8pm, and ends by 11pm The track is laid on carpet, using square section plastic tubing for the perimeter, and heavy ropes for the circuit markers. 1/10th scale saloon cars are the most popular, but other sizes and types are welcome provided there are enough entries to make a race heat.
The 60 or so drivers are divided into race heats of 7 cars depending on car/motor type and driver ability (from novice to expert).
