Shakespeare County Raceway ‘Track Sweeper Collection’ by Outlaw Street

As a ‘grass roots’ drag race series Outlaw Street have always loved racing at Shakespeare County Raceway with its relaxed ‘grass roots’ & friendly atmosphere, holding four of the series race meets at the track this year.

Through racing at the track it came to our attention that they were really in need of a replacement trac...k sweeper as the current one had been in loyal service for over 15+ years and had sadly reached the end of the road!

No racer ever wants to detonate their pride & joy on the track but as we all know it can happen to any of us & with the old sweeper the track crew have a devils own job of clearing trackside.

Sweepers in today’s economy are often hard to come by and when one does come long it usually comes with a hefty calling card which is why Outlaw Street have committed to SCR to try and assist in offsetting some of its funding. After all it's to all of our benefit to have the best track possible.

We started collecting this week and thus far have already raised in excess of £300 with a target of £1,500.

Outlaw Street members will also be at Shakespeare County Raceway on the weekend of the 1st & 2nd October with collection buckets and will make a cheque presentation to Jerry Cookson of SCR at the Outlaw Street 2011 Prize Night on November 26th.
If you would like to make a donation to the collection you can do so via our PayPal account at: outlawstreet@hotmail.co.uk

If you would like to send a cheque or make a donation as a club/series then please email outlawstreet@hotmail.co.uk to arrange.

We would really appreciate any and all support to achieve this target for SCR.
Many thanks
Mark & all from Outlaw Street

i assume Mark still drives a mk3 cortina estate converted to a van with a large yank V8 so please support theese guys in supporting a new track sweeper, i know you pay alot to get in and race but this is to cover HSE and insurance most of the staff are practically volountary remember without them and good track prep equipment we would not have a race track

Good idea, I've already had a chat with Mark, but a VPCUK donation would be better.
