- Date: Sunday 22 September 2024
- Racing time: Approximately 11am to 5pm
- Entry fee: Senior £25, Junior £20
About the event
Hunstanton's very own whacky races will return this September! The event is organised by the Borough Council of King's Lynn & West Norfolk. Construct your hand-built karts and come and join in the fun, racing down Hunstanton's hilly streets, thrilling the large crowds in attendance. Teams are encouraged from everywhere and everyone - families, businesses, organisations; all of the community.
The course is fast and exciting with challenges to overcome (ramp, chicane and tight corners). Starting by the High Street on Greevegate, it zooms down past the Green and finishes in Beach Terrace Road by the Bandstand.
You can view the course route on our course map.
The course and its start and finish is controlled on the day by King's Lynn & District Motor Club.
For spectators there will be music and entertainment on the Green, all contributing to a great carnival atmosphere for all the family! There are plenty of outlets nearby the Green and the course to purchase food and refreshments.

NB. All above ages are as on race day.

Presentations
The day will conclude with a presentation ceremony once racing has ended and the results have been established.
