Charity
Charity thrill rides this Sunday at Knockhill’s Track Attack Live event!
Racers Caroline and Steph McMurdo have teamed up with their racing buddies to offer members of the public passenger laps with some of the Scottish Motor Racing Club’s top drivers, as part of the fund raising they are doing to support Edinburgh based charity It’s Good 2 Give.
For just £10, passengers will experience 3 laps of Knockhill circuit with their own tame[ish] racing driver at the wheel in the very cars they race at Knockhill. Cars and drivers include competitors from the Scottish MINI Cooper Cup who stole the show at last weekend’s BTCC and we can expect all their usual ten-tenths kerb hopping antics guaranteeing an adrenaline filled ride!
The culmination of the fund raising will see the McMurdo girls trekking up Mount Kilimanjaro in October, we wish them the best of luck!
Xtreme Karting Edinburgh are delighted to be involved and help with the charity event in memory of David Ball, raising money for CHAS and Maggies.
