This year's Arrowtown Trolley Grand Prix is shaping up as
a battle of the super-heroes after the announcement that Batman
has entered the race.
Batman, aka Luke Calder, said the high-tech Batmobile, which
won the recreational division of the inaugural grand prix,
was under "secret construction" in his workshop.
"As we speak, my butler, Alfred, is concocting a few new and
innovative additions," Mr Calder said.
"So fellow racers should be warned that Alfred is definitely
on the case."
Arrowtown Trolley Grand Prix co-ordinator Julie Hughes said
the event was a good community event open to everyone, not
just super-heroes and arch-villains.
As well as division prizes, the overall winner of the day
will be the fastest trolley across the line.
A public vote also counts towards placings in the separate
categories, and Mrs Hughes said there would also be spot
prizes.
The race starts in Durham St beside the Arrowtown Preschool
and finishes in Ramshaw St.
