Probably about 11am .. my 2wd is in bits atm, but will maybe take the Firestorm or Carnage with me just in case there is something to drive on :D... if I'm aloud :D

It's prolly just a field :thumbsup:

I'll hang around the 'pond' in the village if you wanna meet up Carl...

Chaps, you won't find it! Plus the land owner doesn't like "strangers" kicking around if you do find it! I'm hoping to get some work done at the track tomorrow afternoon, give me a shout on 07786400841 and I'll give you directions, or meet you in downham.
Cheers, Barry.

Dufty07 04-02-2012 12:04 AM

Thats gr8, Can we play?:thumbsup:
Will get some pics to post as well

rcmodelweek 04-02-2012 09:02 AM

You can give the track a go if you wish, but it is quite rough at the moment, I am in the process of rolling it. I have some pictures which I emailed Tom and George, I will try and post them up shortly.

rcmodelweek 04-02-2012 09:46 AM

I dont seem to be able to post the pictures of the track. Not sure if either George or Tom could post the ones I emailed to them?......

racingdwarf 04-02-2012 10:23 AM

Let me know if you get any hard graft from eather of them......possibly some photographic evidence to use against them next time I post a track work day:lol::lol::lol:

If it's as good as your 8th track was when I had a go it will be spot on:thumbsup:.

I'm back from my adventures :)

I found the track...my eagle eye's spotted the rostrum on my 2nd drive around the village.

Epic work you've done. I've got some pics of the astro turf track on my phone. It was too damn cold to stay that long, had a real nice chat with the fella who uses the hangers :)

I think it's gonna be a cracking regional this year!

I am astounded at the level of work gone in to the tracks in the region already and there is still more continuing everywhere!!!:thumbsup:

I am looking forward to taking dents out of all your hard work!:lol:

Juttie 04-02-2012 02:07 PM

Just looking at the pics I cannot belive how much astro turf we layed out my god that was hard work but as you can see the results show we are heading in the right direction.

JohnM 04-02-2012 02:48 PM

damm that's a BIG track:thumbsup:

Dufty07 04-02-2012 05:38 PM

Very Nice
 
Went out and had a look, and a lap. (added a vent hole in a pipe:blush:) Met Barry, we just missed you jason.
There is a bloody big 1/8th track, I mean its BIG, you need a map to follow it....FANTANSTIC:thumbsup:
The 1/10th track is all astro with no sand added, so its spur gear friendly.
Its a big track with a nice mix, some jumps n stuff are being made, and small domes added to corners.
You can tell alot of time, money and effort has gone into this track.
The rostrum is HUGE, This is a very nice venue, and I hope people will travel I think its better than Eastrax
Barry said he may run a club day before the regional, a shakedown.

almunro 04-02-2012 05:47 PM

You can see the rostrum from the A134, on the left if heading south. Look for the hangers and its just to the left of them.

As im about a mile from the track, let me know if there is a club day or a few hours to test it out and i'll pop down. I have a Rc8e and a B4 so would love a go of both tracks. Great work that im sure will be enjoyed!

I could only stitch 2 of the photos, but gives a better idea of the track.
