Celebrity racing action coming to Milton Keynes

Karting event looks to put city in pole position for helping our heroes

Fancy rubbing shoulders with Boyzone's Shane Lynch, getting close to karting action AND supporting a charity at the same time?

Milton Keynes has been selected for the first Race for Heroes and you can be a part of the day.

Stars from British motorsport will gather at the Daytona centre on Dansteed Way next Saturday, February 27, to raise money and awareness for the Help For Heroes charity.

They will be joined by Boyzone's Shane Lynch, Tom Clarke from The Enemy, the lads from TV's Dirty Sanchez and a soldiers team fronted by George Cross and Pride of Britain winner Matt Croucher.

Taking on all of these will be a team of top Girl racers, compromising 2009 Ginetta Junior Champion Sarah Moore, 2009 Formula Renault Star Alice Powell, Dunlop Sport Maxx class B Champion Abbie Eaton, VW cup driver Anna Walewska and top karter Sophie Fisher.

As well as the fast-paced action there will be other entertainment during the six-hour endurance race, prize giving, auction and dinner.

Just 300 general public tickets will be available for sale at 30 each.

The all-day event opens to the public at 10am; parking on site is extremely limited and will have to be reserved in advance on a first come first served basis.

There will be other parking available nearby for people who can't be accommodated at Daytona itself.

Companies interested in sponsoring via branding at the event or on the karts are also urged to get in touch.
