Barford Raceway

Barford Racewayis promoted by North East Stock Car Promotions with Cyril Whitfield at the helm. Originally a dirt track, the track was turned to tarmac ,with an armco barrier, in 1995-96 and is now the only running track in the North East. It is set in an old Army Camp but slowly all the buildings are being demolished and used as banking for spectators. The track is in County Durham and set near the popular town of Barnard Castle. The meetings at Barford are shared between National Bangers (ORC spec)and Banger Rods, alternating each meeting. This in recent years has helped boost Banger turn outs. Most meetings you will get a 20-30 car turn- out along with some visitors mainly being 502 Hoagy + Krazy Krew.
