A very well attended, popular event, with a good mix of gravity racers and novelty carts and sidecars. |

A well attended event catering for a variety of gravity sports, including soapbox, skateboard, street luge and gravity bike. A safe track with lots of run-off areas, should you get it wrong. |
Cairngorm Soapbox Extreme
soapboxracing.co.uk/
In my opinion, the top cartie event of the year. A +60mph, 2mile long course, not for novelty carts. Individual practice and qualifying, then group racing. |
Castle Forbes Gravity Race

The Castle Forbes Gravity Race is a brand new event for the Scottish cartie racing calendar in 2011. It will be a two day time trial event in the beautiful grounds of Castle Forbes, near Alford in Aberdeenshire. |
Catterline Carties

A fun, but challenging event. Check out the videos on YouTube. Entrants have come from far and wide to challenge the locals and usually failed - are you up for the challenge. |

One mile of fast sweeping tarmac, set in the heart of the North Yorshire moors. Excellent brakes required and not for novelty carts. |

This is a distance event rather than a speed "time trail", with competitors looking to travel the furthest. there is also a ???King of the Hill??? pushbike hill climb; with various other activities including can shy, hoopla, treasure hunt, etc. Refreshments will also be available. |
Halloween Cartie Race : 18th October 2014
cartie-race.brechinbusinessassociation.co.uk/
A well attended and fun event in the previous two year, with a significantly longer course in 2013 being retained for 2014. Looking forward to this event again, however less rain this year would be more comfortable for the spectators. |
