Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's a pedalcar, and if you saw it in the sky I'm sure the driver would be extremely grateful if you were to call for an ambulance.

Pedal car racing is a sport where teams of drivers race single-seater human powered cars in races of up to 24 hours in duration on circuits such as go-kart tracks like Shenington. With classes for juniors as well as adults, the sport actively encourages young people to learn team working and race craft, along with a good dose of physical fitness, whilst having a whole load of fun along the way.

The Shenington race is the only 24hr endurance race in the British Pedal Car Championship (BPCC). This website provides information about the sport in general, about this specific race, and provides live lap timings as well as news in the run up to the race.

The 2012 race will run from the 30th of June to the 1st of July
