I'm surprised the axles are strong enough not to bend.

Mike we are looking for speed events (rather than novelty events) to run next year. Do you have any suggestions. Thanks.

Hi James, I race at Harewood Gravity Games. You can find them easily enough on Facebook. It is based in the north of England. I have just uploaded a full POV lap of the event onto my channel if you want to check it out.

[@jameseastwood4984]

@@Mike_Barnard Thanks, I found them, looks very interesting with some braking and cornering involved. Any other events? I see there's also one up by the Humber Bridge. We're in Essex, so I wouldn't mind going over to Europe if the event was good and make a trip if it.

[@Mike_Barnard]

@@jameseastwood4984 I know there is an event at the Humber bridge but i haven’t been to it. I’m not sure of any races in Europe but would probably make the drive over for a good one. Honestly Harewood is probably the best one I know off. It’s done over a weekend with practice on Saturday and racing on Sunday. I think I got 15 runs on over the entire weekend. More than you’ll do at any other event.

[@jameseastwood4984]

@@Mike_Barnard Wow 15 runs is good, I'd read their literature on the site and it made it sound like not that many. Plus we do love a bit of camping. We've got various parts arriving this week to start building the steering system next week. My daughter is the intended pilot. I do like your quick release wheel btw.

@@jameseastwood4984 included in the ticket is camping and BBQ so perfect weekend really. I have loads of photos of my build on my Instagram as well if your interested. Got loads more detailed photos on it if you want inspiration.

[@brentfigueroa9883]

Can u give me some like detentions and specs of ur build looking to build one similar

[@Mike_Barnard]

Hi, I don’t have any plans for building this. I just built it as I went along really. There are a few more build photos on my Instagram if that helps

[@peterherrington3300]

Interesting video spoilt by awful " music" . What is it , did you build it , what are your goals for it etc . Looks cool but no information on it whatsoever.

[@Mike_Barnard]

It’s a gravity powered racer and yes I built it myself to compete at the Harewood Gravity games this year. It won best engineered kart at the event. I have a video up of a race lap on my channel but most of the build information is on my Instagram page. The video was just some footage I got during the first few test runs. Only reason the music is there is because it would have been 5 minutes of wind noise so I chose to put some music behind it.
