Easter motor racing Devon/Somerset? - Round The Bend
I'm looking for somewhere to take my 14 year old for a bit of father & son bonding on Easter Sunday. Are there any events that you can recommend within an hours drive of Tiverton?

If you are into stock / banger racing etc then:

www.mendipsraceway.com

"Sunday April 8th -Formula Two Stock Car World Championship Qualifying Round*Rookie Bangers*Hot Rods"

A good example of the genre I am sure though not really my thing.

We went to the Mendis Raceway yesterday and had a good time. Cheap to get in and plenty of action on the track - would defy anyone to watch the Bangers and not laugh out load!

Mare - any idea how quick the hot rods are??

Sheepishly

Sorry, didn't go - the kids didn't fancy it in the end. Glad you enjoyed it though, it is good fun.

We're going to try the Hill Climbing at Wiscombe next time. Suspect it will be a little more up-market.....
