Pedal Car Racing

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pedal Car Racing is a circuit racing endurance sport where teams of up to six drivers race single-seater human powered sports cars in races of up to twenty-four hours duration.

The cars are mainly sports prototypes built by or for the teams that race them. There are no commercial suppliers of racing pedal cars in the UK as yet (although Karbyk in Italy do make racing pedal cars commercially). Although all cars have to comply with the international pedal car specification, this is quite an open formula so the cars are as varied as the teams who race them with many different solutions to the same problem.

The British Pedal Car Championship is a series of endurance pedal car races which runs between April and September every year in the UK. Typically, there are 8 races totalling just over 60 racing hours including one 24 hour race in June.
