Description

Tame the power of these mean machines with unique racing day for two. You will be given the chance to negotiate a specially-designed course at the Diggerland adventure theme park, racing against the clock with other dumper truck racing recipients on the day. If you can avoid making driving errors and receiving penalties with your one-tonne beast, you will qualify for the final, with the fastest drivers going head-to-head. Become the Kent Diggerland champion – roll up your sleeves and beat the opposition.

Availability: Runs approximately one Saturday evening a month between May and October, but days may vary throughout the year. Weather: Racing may be cancelled or curtailed in extreme weather conditions like ice or heavy rain, when driving might become dangerous. Call the venue if in any doubt. Duration: Lasts around two and a half hours. Please arrive 30 minutes before the start time for a welcome address. Numbers On Day: A maximum of 28 people take part.
