WITH Lewis Hamilton riding high as the newly-crowned Formula One world champion, here's your chance to get a slice of the action at the circuit which discovered him.

The News of the World has teamed up with Buckmore Park in Chatham, Kent, to offer a lucky winner the chance to take part in a one-hour endurance race at the park on December 29, 2008.

Competitors will take part in a 60-minute dash to the final flag behind the wheel of a Pro Kart.

Previous experience isn't necessary - just general fitness and a thirst for adventure.

Steve Foreman of Buckmore Park explains: "As an introduction to motor sport, the event is ideal. Through a safety briefing and introduction of the circuit, you can begin to understand the basics of karting.

"You then go out on circuit and take part in a practice to get used to cornering, breaking and following the racing line.

"They you take part in an hour-long endurance which gives you plenty of time to experience traffic negotiation on the circuit - with up to 34 other karts around you."

To enter the competition, you need to answer a simple question.
