WHO Celebrate 5 Years

In the depths of Winter weather, WHO marked the fifth anniversary of the club with a suitably cool birthday cake.

The remaining 'Class of Feb 2010' - Andy, Tyler, Jonah, John and Mike - blew out the candles.

Twenty-seven racers were on the grid for Nascar, with an incredibly fast and unforgiving tri-oval to tackle.

 

Worthing HO Racing wish to thank everyone who has contributed to during our first five years.

The time has flown, but we have achieved loads together and have created something very special here at the Barn.
