Winter Junior Karting Championship 2012

Herefordshire Raceway is holding a junior karting championship for children aged between 8 to 16 years.  This will take place between December and March, giving youngsters a chance to test their skills against the best young drivers in Herefordshire.   

The championship will consists of 4 rounds with your best 3 scores counting towards the championship table, the highest points scorer over the series will be crowned Herefordshire Raceway Winter Champion!! However, drivers can compete in as few or many rounds as they desire.  There will be 2 classes, premier class and novice class, all drivers will be in the premier class with selected drivers eligible for the novice class (speak to Chris to see if you are eligible for the novice class). It would be advisable that the participants have used the track several times to familiarise themselves with the layout of the circuit and performance of the karts. Please note, a minimum weight will be set at the 1^st round.

The format will involve both classes on the track at the same time on ¾ power karts .  The format will consist of practice, 3 heats each of 6 laps followed by an A & B final of 8 laps.  Your position in the finals determines your championship points, there will also be a bonus point for the fastest lap of the meeting.  There will be championship awards for top three in each class at the final round.

The dates for each round are as follows:

•   Sunday 4^th December 2011
•   Sunday 15^th January 2012
•   Sunday 5^th February 2012 
•   Sunday 4^th March 2012

The cost of each event will be £30, to book call 01544 318334.  Each round will be limited to 15 drivers so booking is essential to avoid disappointment, a deposit may be required.  Signing on is between 9:30am and 10am, racing starts at 10am!

Please note:

·        As this is a competitive event the organisers decision is final with regard to driving standard and gaining places by pushing your competitors off the track will not be tolerated.  I hope the events will be run in the spirit to which they are intended, i.e. protests are not in the spirit of the event.

·        The format may be altered before the 1^st round if necessary.  We hope you enjoy this fun championship and may the best youngsters win.
