Wacky racers wheeled out their prams for an annual charity dash.

Teams pushing their homemade vehicles went head to head on Boxing Day in the East Hoathly and Halland pram race.

This year's 'Jackass' theme meant competitiors dressed as Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O and other stars from the MTV show.

The event began in the Seventies and became part of the area's Christmas celebrations.

It was abandoned in the Eighties but seven years ago, members of the East Hoathly and Halland Carnival Society society decided to revive it and proceeds go to charity.
