Venue: Harper Adams University College, Shropshire
An agricultural college located near Newport, Shropshire, The Neo race uses the
college's indoor soil hall - the largest of its kind in Europe. Next door, the
agricultural machine hall is transformed into the Neo pitting hall. Track
construction usually starts 1 or 2 weekends before the event, depending on the
college's timetable. The temporary track in its 'race-ready' state exists for
only four days, as soon as the event finishes demolition of the track, pitting
area, race control, drivers stand etc begins, by the next morning everything is
gone. The fact that the track only exists 'for' the race ensures a fair and
level playing field for all drivers; no one having practiced on it and at an
advantage - it is a true test of the driver. The organization team are able to
keep the track consistent via daily watering schedules and sweeping of the
racing line, weather is less of a factor than outdoor races as we race under
roof and lights!
