Successful Weekend for Wacky Racers

At the weekend Holly Raper and her boyfriend Gerald successfully organised their 2nd Wacky Racers event which is set to raise over a fantastic £3,000 once all the cars are sold!

The treasure hunt style challenge started on Friday 7th July and finished with the winners being announced on Sunday. The winners for the second year in a row were Paul and Malcom from ‘Team Radish’ who were sponsored by East Riding Group.

10 old bangers which had to cost under £250 set off to find destinations where they had to take selfies to prove they were there. If they failed to locate the spot, take the photo or had to be towed due to a breakdown then they would get points deducted from their score.

Holly says “A great number of teams are involved this year from all over England. Until the mornings of the event teams have absolutely no idea where they are going or where they’re staying for the night. Wacky Racers is a completely different kind of charity event which not only raises money but much needed awareness of Pancreatic Cancer.”

“I just want to say thank you all everyone involved and to all the sponsors who have been amazing this year.”
