I am a local resident of Crystal Palace Park, and for me, the heart of this park has always been the remote control car track. This attraction has been around since the 70s and serves as a significant reminder of our community's rich motorsport history. As a child, I would come to watch the races every Sunday with my grandmother. These experiences instilled in me a deep love for cars that eventually led to my career in the motor industry.

The proposed regeneration plan threatens to replace this beloved track with a football pitch. While we understand and appreciate efforts to modernize our park, it is crucial not to erase parts of its history that hold such sentimental value for many residents like myself.

The remote control car track is more than just an attraction; it's an emblem of our shared past and should be preserved as part of our shared future. It represents decades-long tradition that continues to inspire younger generations towards creativity, innovation, and passion for motorsports.

We urge those responsible for planning Crystal Palace Park's regeneration not only consider economic factors but also respect and preserve its historical significance within our community.

Please join us in urging authorities to keep the remote control car track intact during park regeneration. Sign this petition today!
