Speedway

Tucked away in the quiet country road of my hometown of Northampton lies the UK’s longest serving short oval circuit, host to Stock car and Banger Racing and their variety of Formulas. This hidden gem is a must visit for all lovers of motorsport for its jampacked, back-to-back racing where action is never lacking. 

 What was just as impressive than the racing was its great sense of community, from family-led teams filling the paddock, racers of all ages and of course, competitiveness, but all in good spirit for the sport it is so clear everyone here loves.

 The English weather was kind to us on many occasions which rewardingly, created some dramatic and vibrant imagery.

 Here is a selection of photographs I got on my visits to Shaleway, I hope they give you a feel for what it’s like to be there.
