About this event
Saturday June 27 we will be holding Volunteer Staff training at Darlington Speedway.
It will last from 8am to 12pm.
We have room for 20 trainees. We may add more if we have enough instructors to handle more.
After training you are invited to join us in staffing the charity laps around the speedway from 1pm till evening. Staffing the charity laps will allow you to participate in the paced laps around Darlington raceway.
