This years Chas Keeling Trophy race held on 6th January 2024 produced another win for team “Whateva” although with a very able substitute for one of the regular team members (due to ill health), no not Muriel who was there to present the trophy but Rob. Well done all, another competitive event.

The winning team and car with the Chas Keeling trophy kindly donated by Muriel, Chas would have appreciated the trophy!

 

Sunday 29th October saw the memorial race for Graham Burke. What a great turnout with 9 teams and 26 racers.

After 6 hours of racing , local team “Grassroots racing” won the event with the Bolton team just 6 laps behind. The winning team were presented with the trophy by Grahams sister Susan, to who we presented a painting signed by all present as a reminder of Graham and his hobby for the family to treasure.

Anyone wishing to come and see what it’s all about will be made most welcome and will be encouraged to “have a go” with our club cars and controllers.  The principal of our set up is very similar to Scalextric but on a wooden track and cars that are significantly faster and more stable!

To see where we are and when we race use the drop down links on directions and calendar or please contact either Ian or Paul (details on the Contact link).

*Please see the updated Calendar, Car Classes & Rules for 2023 which includes a new rule on the use of Hawk 9 motors in the 1/24th Production class*

 

 

Congratulations to the 2023 Pontyslot Petit LeMans 6 hour race winners, team “Woteva”, featuring Mick, Chris and Geoff, yes the same team who won the trophy in 2022. Unfortunately John (Chas’s brother) couldn’t attend to present the “Chas Keeling Trophy” to the winning team this year so I’ve used last years picture.

With our three portable rally tracks up and running we now have a Club Rally Championship which also includes a rally stage on an Xbox set up.

Please see the club calendar for further details and dates.
