Festival of Bilge Pre ’96 1400cc Bangers – Sunday 21st June
It’s nearly time for the ‘Festival Of Bilge’, as we’re just over a month away from some Summer time Pre Banger action!
BOOKINGS FOR PRE CLASS OPEN MONDAY 11th MAY so if you still have a car running from Wallers that you think would fit the bill, come on down!
The aim is for this to be a fun day smashing up old junk that isn’t suitable for racing at the ‘big car’ pre meetings or in other unders banger classes. If the meeting is well enough subscribed the idea is to split the front and rear wheel drive cars for the heats, which will be run to lighter contact rules, and then depending on turnout a heavier mixed final and an all in full contact allcomers/DD to finish.
PLEASE CHECK YOUR ELIGIBILITY!
The full build rules are posted HERE.
Welcome to Standlake Arena
Our aim is to provide a fair days racing for as many people as possible in a relaxed friendly atmosphere. Any car past its prime can have one final fling round the Standlake oval, whether you want to race or crash there is a class here for you.
There are various non-contact classes and then there’s the Bangers, Bangers and more Bangers at every meeting. We average 50 Bangers per meeting, with the emphasis on FUN you can race anything from a Mini to a Roller, just check the fixtures page for cc limits at individual meetings.
We have a large pit area and spectators can park around the track on the raised banking to watch from the comfort of their cars.
23 meetings are held throughout the year, on Sundays and Bank Holiday Mondays with 11am start times. About 30 races are run at each meeting with an average 150 racers competing at each event. There is usually a good turnout of Bangers with an average of 50 – 60 cars at each meeting. The Junior class is also well attended with around 25 cars at most meetings.
We also held a national record with 266 Banger cars in attendance at our Heavy Metal Classic on 2nd January 2005. The Heavy Metal Classic meetings are now recognised as the biggest Banger meeting the country sees each year.
Visiting banger drivers are welcome at any meeting.
