After the great success of last weekend, we now look forward to the last Sunday in July, which over the last twelve years can mean only one thing-Banger Team Racing! The established Crashmania for Cancer meeting was given an added poignancy when long serving racer Phil Cleverley(402) was taken by this awful disease early in 2008, and therefore, Filo's Crashmania is our tribute to Phil and his carefree attitude to his banger racing. This is the day when everyone is encouraged to wear pink, and help us raise money for cancer research, as £1 of your admission charge goes straight into the charity box-providing you are wearing something pink! Our entry is limited to twenty five teams, and we still have room for a couple more, at the moment, so any potential teams need to get in touch soonest, either through the website or on the contact phone number. Further details will follow, but suffice it say that we have some very good teams already booked, and some, shall we say, not likely to be bothering the trophy girls! This year Ben Clifton, the TEABOY of Ovalchat fame, is cycling all the way from his home in Kent to the stadium, and hoping to be heavily sponsored for doing so, and we here at the Raceway will pledge £100 if he makes it! |

An entry just a couple shy of 60 cars was highly impressive with drivers literally coming from all four corners of England, the furthest of which was 474 Matt Threkeld from Carlisle. The action got under way within one second of the green flag going down... |

 Mendips Raceway 27th and 28th June 2009 preview by Steve Linfield
Mendips Raceway will be back in action over the weekend of June 27th and 28th, the only time this season we have Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon racing together, and has become a highlight of any given season here at the track. The National Bangers will be with us on both days, and significant events both too with the annual under 2 litre all-Ford rear wheel drive “British Beef” session on Saturday and then the first running of the Parker Hannifin £1000 Summer Open Championship being one of the highlights on Sunday afternoon. The weekend has attracted a great entry once again, |
