Series of summer events continues with a giant scalextric track
Chiswick Park moved up a gear last Friday as a day of racing activities took place on The Square, Chiswick Park. Rolling Thunder, a giant 22 m scalextric track was the central attraction, with 54 teams competing against each other on the track for the fastest lap. Over 400 people from about 9 companies attended the event and the winner of the fastest lap was Ben Humphrey & Simon Durham from Alexander Hall who are based on the park (see below).
There was also a race car simulator so that guests could experience the feeling of being a true racing car driver. Live music provided entertainment for the guests in the form of a band playing 60’s fun jazz throughout the event and a BBQ, open to all provided refreshments.
This is the second year that the event series has taken place and after the success of last year live music and food will accompany each event and be in keeping with the events theme. The events will take place every Friday lunchtime, from 12.00 – 2.00pm, and all of the events will be open to both employees based within the park and local residents. June 23, 2003 Sign
