A number of British electric vehicle (class) records have been set on this former MOD airfield in North Yorkshire, now run as a private business by Elvington Events Ltd.

 


Elvington, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom

 

The venue offers approximately 3 kilometres of smooth level straight line surface.  This is sufficient to allow BE3 to confirm the expected performance when run at Bonneville or other International venues and get the feel of the vehicle.  It might even be possible to set a new British record currently stated as 136mph, which we understand is for the flying kilometer.
