The circuit, now in the hands of Barry Moore and Dave Thorpe, has been considerably redesigned with the aid of top track builder Johnny Douglas Hamilton.

Whiteway Barton has been a long established circuit running top quality events including the Patchquick trophy meetings and is already proving popular in its new format with a full calendar for 2010.
