Kevin McQueen Lochgelly, Scotland “Thunder Vally Raceway” A warm welcome to you all. We're excited to be part of this new magazine and get the chance to promote our Scotland track. We’re going to tell you a bit about the history and then bring you right up-tospeed with what's been happening at the track. Thunder Valley Raceway is now in its 3rd season of promoting stock car racing and first opened its doors in 2010 operating as an independent track before getting involved with Spedeworth. Stock car 22 0844 840 8104 lovers will be glad to hear that it's a proper stock car track. It works well with really close non-contact racing and is a very good contact track without a massive risk of totalling your car. Wide corners and plenty of infield run-offs means that cars being spun can quickly re-join and get back in amongst the action. In 2011, the track hosted two major events for the Spedeworth formula, 'The 1300 World Championship' and 'The Superstox British Championship'. Both were a huge success and with great comments coming from visiting drivers. This year we’ve already seen 'The Superstox European Championship' take place in June with over 30 cars taking part. A wet weekend limited the amount of big hits, but spectators still got to see the kind of action they spend their hard earned money on with plenty of nudging, spinning, cars all around the track and back markers scattered amongst the leaders.
