Wayne Carter Training Sessions

Since the early days of the mini-track, former Scorpions captain Wayne Carter has run regular training sessions. These weekend sessions (usually Sundays – see dates below) are suitable for riders of all abilities and can be booked in advance using the online booking system.

For enquiries, contact Richard Hollingsworth by text (07832 402167) or email (scunnyraceway@gmail.com). Sessions are open to riders using their own bikes as well as those hiring club machines (125cc–150cc).

Pricing:

• £95.00– includes tuition, bike hire, and equipment (helmet, boots, clothing)

• £40.00 – riders using their own bike

Vouchers

Training sessions can be purchased as gift vouchers. Simply book a session through the website shop (card or PayPal), then contact Richard to request a voucher instead of the selected date. Vouchers have no expiry date.

Group bookings

Private group sessions are available for up to 12 riders at £800 for a four-hour session (time agreed in advance).

To secure a date, a £200 deposit is required via PayPal (scunnyraceway@gmail.com) or bank transfer (details available from Richard).
Please contact Richard first to arrange a suitable date, as public session dates cannot be used for group bookings.

Frequently asked questions

What time should I arrive?
Please arrive 30 minutes before the session (usually 11:00am) to allow time for signing on and fitting equipment.

How do I pay?
Book and pay online via card or PayPal. Bank transfer can be arranged by contacting Richard.

What should I bring?
All riding kit is provided, but you may wish to wear a base layer you don’t mind getting dirty. Bring food and drink, as the café only opens when the main track is in use. In colder months, bring warm clothing for between sessions.

Can spectators attend?
Yes – spectators are welcome and may take photos or film.

What does the session involve?
Wayne assesses each rider individually, introduces the bikes, and provides initial guidance before allowing plenty of track time with ongoing coaching. Riders may try different bikes or stick with one.

What ages and abilities are catered for?
All ages and abilities are welcome. Young riders need a minimum inside leg measurement of 22 inches (56cm), although smaller pit bikes can be arranged in advance. Sessions regularly include complete beginners, fans, motocross riders, and experienced motorcyclists trying speedway for the first time.

These sessions are generally aimed at riders with some prior experience (usually on the mini-track under Wayne’s tuition). Fuel, oil, mechanical support, drinks, and snacks are provided.
