Becky Tyrrell: The Last Raceway

Cornwall’s last banger and stock car racing track lies in the village of St Day. One by one tracks are disappearing throughout the UK as the subculture succumbs to a slow decline. For 50 years the track at St Day has been kept alive, through love, devotion and community, but it now faces its toughest test. The Last Raceway tells the story of the track as it faces demolition, a tourist attraction planned in its place. Regardless of its physical fate, this book aims to provide a home for the track, its stories, and its people, in what could be its final season.
