Forgotten Race Tracks - Arena Essex Raceway - Purfleet

#abandoned #essex #arenaessex

Arena Essex was perhaps the "Essex Car Enthusiasts" venue of choice for all things racing. Over its 40 year lifespan, the race track has seen plenty of action from Banger racing, stock cars, demolition derby to drifting.

A place that no doubt has provided many wonderful experiences and memories but a place that has, like many others, been sold off for development and racing discontinued.

We take to the Air with our DJI drone in this episode to explore what remains of this infamous race venue.

If like me, you enjoy motorsport, history and looking at pieces of tarmac... you'll love "Forgotten Race Tracks" where we take a look at some of the old and abandoned race tracks around England.

From Drag strips to Formula 1 circuits, in this short series, we'll be investigating what remains of Britain's motor racing history.
