Delete. Self-documented. Does not appear notable. Appears to be WP:PR or WP:SPAM for company. Student7 (talk) 00:00, 6 October 2010 (UTC) Student7 (talk) 00:00, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - What the hell does WP:PR have to do with this? It certainly isn't spam. Jeni ^(talk) 10:20, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WP:JUSTAVOTE, you have not addressed how this is notable. LibStar (talk) 06:49, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Only a handful of hits on Google UK, zero hits on Google News UK, which you'd think must be the case for any track reporting public match results. No independent sources. Are there any valid policy grounds to keep? Ravenswing 15:24, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 09:45, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Google News Archives in the U.S. only turns up a few passing mentions in relation to events held there. Nothing seems to be enough to establish notability. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 14:24, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Kimbolton. There are a few hits on GNews (if you remove the quotes) but not many. However, the longevity of the track counts in its favour. Since this article barely says anything other than this track existing, it makes sense to mention this in the article of the village the track is nearby and named after.

Comment: Hrm. 14 days open? Shouldn't this be closed by now? Ravenswing 15:23, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No: you failed to list the AFD properly until 20th - see Dumbot's posting above. Peterkingiron (talk) 22:18, 21 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Funny, it managed to make the list, enough for there to be several people who found it and commented on it, myself included. Ravenswing 22:49, 21 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Kimbolton: this is the best solution for local facilities such as this. This is not a major sport. However, we probably also need List of karting venues in England, since the deletion or merger of venues (this beign the 3rd recent AFD) does not enable there to be a category.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Strong delete fails WP:GNG and WP:ORG for lack of reliable sources. LibStar (talk) 06:49, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
