The Grand Prix racing format at Stretton 2000 is slightly different to the one Michael Schumacher takes part in, but is just as exciting! Each driver is racing for themselves, rather than for a team. Having fought through three heats, the drivers will accumilate points and will be added to a final heat (A or B depending on number of drivers). This final will then produce an overall winner (first across the line after so many laps).
The Grand Prix races can take longer to run than the endurance racing, and as each driver is racing for themselves rather than a team, the wait in-between drives is therefore longer. Racing is wheel-to-wheel and we can allow a maximum of around 10 karts out in each heat.

Racers are given the full track walk and briefing before the race to ensure everyone knows the quickest, safest route around the track (the racing line). Drivers will then take part in the races on the new full circuit, after which the results are announced and trophies, medals and champagne are given to the true King or Queen of the track.

All laps are counted by our computer systems and each lap is timed and recorded for analysis.
