2011 Race Calender

The dates of the coming season's races have been published over at www.greenpower.co.uk. We really want to focus on racing this year so as well as the Season Opener we will be entered for 3 regional heats. The dates for our races this season will be:

• Season Opener @Silverstone - 1st May 2011
• Southwest Regional Heat @RAF St Mawgan - 23rd June 2011
• Somerset Regional Heat @RNAS Merryfield - 17th September 2011
• Western Regional Heat @Castle Combe - 2nd October 2011

 A top three place at any of the regional heats will guarantee a place at the National Final @Goodwood on the 16th October 2011. If we fail to win a podium at these events we will have to hope that our race milage puts us in the 'fastest losers' bracket, but hopfully it wont come to that!

Season Opener

The date for the Season Opener has been set for the 1st May 2011 and will be held at Silverstone. We have jumped at the chance of getting the car on such a high profile track and will be taking RLR 1 for its first real stretch with the new spec batteries. The Season Opener will be a short race of only 80 minutes, using just a single pair of batteries and will be using the National Circuit track layout. The main event of the day however will be the Corporate Challenge in the afternoon where the top 15 teams from last season take on real, grown up engineers from such companies as Jaguar/Land Rover and Bently.
