In short: Well organised race
In full: A little bit chilly, to be expected this time of year. Start a little bit busy but go away OK. Nice flat 2 lap course. Only gripe was finishing straight which went from road onto grass verge for the last 30 metres or so - not great for sprint finish. Apart from that a well organised and enjoyable event.

In short: Great race, worth braving the November weather for
In full: Really enjoyed this race. Well signposted to race HQ from a mile or so out which is good. Facilities at Swindon Karting are good too. Only the 4th race I have ever done but my favourite so far, and I ran a good PB! They give you jelly babies at 5k and 9k which is nice too :)
