MOULTON CHARIOT RACE 17 MAY 2009

THE DEVIL'S REJECTS WILL BE TAKING PART IN THE 2009 MOULTON GRAND COMIC CHARIOT RACE, AND SO COULD YOU!

TEAM TDR ARE CONSTRUCTING "DELILAH" SPECIFICALLY FOR THE BELCHFORD DOWNHILL CHALLENGE IN SEPTEMBER, BUT THE MOULTON RACE DOESN'T REQUIRE SUCH ADVANCE PLANNING. SOAPBOXES, OR CHARIOTS, ONLY HAVE TO HAVE THE MINIMUM OF SPECIFICATION TO RACE. YOU DON'T NEED BRAKES OR ROLL CAGES AND THERE AREN'T ANY WEIGHT REGULATIONS - SO LONG AS YOU CAN STEER IT, YOU'RE IN! THIS IS NOT A GRAVITY POWERED EVENT, YOU HAVE TO PUSH YOUR VEHICLES USING BRUTE FORCE!

WHY ENTER?

TWO WORDS - FREE BEER. AT EACH CHECKPOINT YOU HAVE TO DOWN A HALF OF BEER (OR ORANGE SQUASH IF YOU'RE UNDER 18) BEFORE CARRYING ON. ITS ALSO GOING TO GET YOU OUT OF BED ON A SUNDAY MORNING AND GIVE YOU SOME EXCERCISE AS WELL, BUT WHO CARES ABOUT THAT?

THE CIRCUIT

THE RACE FOLLOWS THE ONE WAY SYSTEM ROUND THE VILLAGE, AND IS APPROXIMATELY 0.4 MILES

POINT A: THE START AND FINISH LINE
