Beckington Go-Kart Rally brings racing thrills to village streets
The sleepy streets of Beckington resembled those of Monte Carlo at the inaugural Beckington Go-Kart Rally.
The event, sponsored by Global Premier, was a huge success despite the persistent rain with more than 50 teams taking part.
Competitors, many in fancy dress, pushed their homemade or eBay bought go-karts along a one kilometre track littered with various obstacles and tasks.
Competitors were cheered along the way by more than 100 spectators, and running commentary from Life on Mars writer Matt Graham.
