Racing in the EU

[Chris Hall]

Crisis (Nick Roads) and Pork Pie Racing (Chris Hall) recently ventured with our hybrids over to Croix in northern France to race with the Belgian club. To be able to do this we had to obtain a Carnet to present to customs in both the UK and France. It seems a fairly daunting process until you've completed a round of it. In essence we are temporarily exporting and importing a race car, tools and spares so we needed to provide a list of everything on a Carnet form. There are agencies that will do the paper work for you once you've prepared the list.

If anyone is racing abroad and not sure about the Carnet process then I'm more than willing to help

PS we had a great weekend despite the borders
