2025 Evening Grass Autotests

The popular evening autotest series is back for another year.

Seven evening blasts round the cones on a flat non-damaging field. Tests from 6.30 to 8.30 and back home or join us for supper at The Greyhound, Burton on the Wolds, if there a better way to spend a summer evening?

Young drivers, 14 or over, are welcome all they need is enthusiasm, a supportive adult and any (seriously any) car.
