The format will be sprint-based with crosskart buggies set off at intervals and timed over a course. Times will be totalled to find a winner both overall and in categories.
Entry fee per round is from £150. Entries will have to be submitted in advance online before deadlines and, with starters limited, drivers are encouraged to act fast to not be disappointed.
