This project presented Ovenden Allworks with a challenge due to a tight schedule

That was further compounded by the track being in almost constant use by other drivers.

But by working closely with Dunsfold Aerodrome and the BBC we coordinated our works so that we were able to complete the works on time, ready for the new series.

The Project

This was done by working through the nights to gain access to the track, with a special focus remaining on keeping the track clean and tidy to not disrupt the racing the next morning.

These works were completed using Ovenden Allworks' sister company Ovenden Plant Hire's machines, including excavators, dump trucks, both wheeled and tracked to suit the extremely wet conditions and roller.

Testing

To ensure the track was suitable Tristan Ovenden, the British Suzuki Swift Rallycross Champion, brought his car to test the different elements of the track during construction.
