Everards Farm in Somerset was the backdrop this year for another fantastic British Racing Greats<\/a> fundraising day spent celebrating an awesome selection of stunning classic cars and supercars.<\/strong><\/p>\n

From a unicorn Diablo making its first public appearance in years, to an MC12 and R34 GTR, we weren\u2019t short of special cars for a very special day.<\/p>\n

There was also a fabulous range of activities on offer, including a breathtaking Pit Stop Challenge, Scalextric races, a great range of driving simulator experiences from sponsors such as Playground Games<\/a> and Alpine F1<\/a>, and a turn (literally) with a 360\u00b0 camera.<\/p>\n

The Sporting Bears Motor Club<\/a> provided the cars and the unforgettable rides for the charity beneficiaries, their families and the event sponsors around a locally designated circuit of roads.<\/p>\n

All of this was complemented by an excellent BBQ, the illustrious Maverick coffee car, a prize draw, bouncy castle, face painting\u2026 and goats!<\/p>\n

A big, big thank you to everyone who was a part of another wonderful event that\u2019s raised thousands of pounds for SpecialEffect and Solving Kids\u2019 Cancer<\/a> UK.<\/p>\n

Our heartfelt thanks go to Darren Mills, Chris Lee and Supercar Driver Club<\/a> for their organisation, The event was also made possible by our headline sponsors \u2013 Sumo Digital<\/a>, Maverick Games<\/a>, Playground Games<\/a>, DHL<\/a>, and Xsolla<\/a> \u2013 and our event sponsors, including SuperGears Games<\/a>, Escape Technology<\/a>, Lucid Games<\/a>, Hutch Games<\/a>, Julius B\u00e4r, SEGA<\/a>, Miniclip<\/a> and Cascade. We couldn\u2019t do it without you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Everards Farm in Somerset was the backdrop this year for another fantastic British Racing Greats fundraising day spent celebrating an awesome selection of stunning classic cars and supercars.
